CHEYENNE -  AARP’s Care for Caregivers series is back for 2026, as this popular series runs Mondays from mid-September through October 12. This is the fifth time the series has been offered in Cheyenne after it was developed by AARP Wyoming’s Sheridan Community Action Team. The series' founders and directors understand the need for caregivers to take time for themselves to be at their best for their loved ones, while learning about the challenges of caregiving.

Each week’s session starts at 5:30 p.m. with a free dinner to help caregivers unwind and meet others in similar situations. The presentations will get underway at 6 p.m. and end by 7:30 p.m. Registration is not required, but strongly encouraged to help organizers get a good headcount as they order dinner. To register for the series, visit https://events.aarp.org/Care2026 or call 1-877-926-8300 and ask for Care for Caregivers Cheyenne.
