Everything you wish you’d known before you needed it.

One day you’re the daughter. The next you’re also the scheduler, the driver, the one who reads the fine print, goes to Dr. appointments and fields the late-night phone call. Nobody hands you a guide for that shift, so most of us piece it together on our own, one crisis at a time.

This night is the guide. I’ll share the honest version of my years caring for my mom, and four local pros will cover what’s coming: keeping parents safe at home, knowing when it’s time for more help, the paperwork every family needs, and staying well yourself while you carry it all. You’ll go home with a resource sheet and one step to take this week.

Then we’ll move to the Cornerstone pub for a drink and mingling, because the best answers usually come out over one.
