About our akugbe groups
What Y'all Talkin' Bout?
Our group discussions will consist of a variety of topics because our lives include more than our caregiver journey.
Our discussions will cover topics of civic engagement (voting, policies that affect our communities, how to get involved, etc.), mental health (reducing stress and increasing self-care, etc.), physical health (cooking classes, sharing recipes, etc.), and topics related to our caregiving journeys (sharing advice, resources, your heart, etc.)
We're going to share our wins and frustrations, laugh, cry and maybe scream, LOL. We're going to listen respectfully, give grace, share resources and stories and hold one another accountable when needed, but most of all we are going to show each other love and grow our community.
