Are you or someone you know a caregiver to an adult loved one?

Caregivers sacrifice so much to ensure someone else is taken care of but oftentimes forget about themselves. The Powerful Tools for Caregivers course is designed to offer training to caregivers on self-care. If you can spare an hour and a half (once a week for 6 weeks), then this class is for you. Call Kerron at the Ouachita County Extension Office if you have any questions at (870) 231-1160. Register at this link: https://uada.formstack.com/forms/ptfc_ouachita

Happy Extension Homemakers Month!!! Thank you to Judge McAdoo for signing a proclamation deeming May 2026 as EHC Month in Ouachita County.
