Caregiver Respite with Shelter Pets!

I always love reading about the cool things our elder law grads are doing.  Last week Stephanie Edwards, Elder Law LL.M. grad and adjunct professor in our MJ Aging, Law & Policy program, held a wonderful event for caregivers, those in their care and shelter pets. The Caregivers Holiday Paws Pause included staffed respite caregiving for those who needed care while their caregivers got a little break to visit with exhibits, interact with shelter pets seeking homes and having a meal. The event also included a presentation for caregivers on strategies for caregivers during the holidays.  One shelter pet even found a new home.  Stephanie Edwards ROCKS!!
