Offered in partnership with The Span Center, The Capital Area Agency on Aging, Powerful Tools for Caregivers (PTC) is an educational program for family caregivers to build the skills needed to take better care of themselves as they provide care for others.

- communicate their needs to family and healthcare or service providers
- communicate effectively in challenging situations
- recognize the messages in their emotions
- deal with difficult feelings
- make tough caregiving decisions
