Village Bank Women In Networking Series Presents: A Family Affair (Juggling Career, Kids & Aging Parents) 9/23/2010 11:30 AM - 9/23/2010 1:30 PM

The Village Bank Women In Networking Series Presents:

A Family Affair (Juggling Career, Kids and Aging Parents)

We do what we can to prepare for inevitable life changes. However, few people anticipate what it takes – on every level – to care for an aging parent. Adult children are thrust into making decisions for their parents with very little warning or experience. They are keenly aware that life is going to change, but they are not sure how. The unknown of “what’s next” makes them anxious. It seems daunting to balance parent care and other family responsibilities. There is a lot of uncertainty, a tremendous amount of emotion, and a high degree of unpredictability.

At this session, presenter Andrea Cohen will discuss:

· Finding sound elder care advice;

· Identifying resources to help;

· Understanding costs;

· Getting buy-in from the entire family, including the parent;

· Balancing elder care and family responsibilities

Andrea Cohen of Houseworks is a social entrepreneur dedicated to transforming the way care is delivered at home. Her passion for "getting it right" has inspired a series of pioneering ventures that raise the bar for helping seniors age in place. Ms. Cohen was recently awarded the Distinguished Alumni Award by Boston College Graduate School of Social Work and the Louis Lowy Award by the Massachusetts Gerontology Association. In recognition of her achievements as an entrepreneur, she was selected as a 2009 Pinnacle Award honoree by the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce.

Cost is $35 for Members and $50 for General Admission (Includes Lunch). There is a $5 surcharge at the door without prior registration.
