Upper Peninsula Caregiver Resource Center

The mission of the Upper Peninsula Caregiver Resource Center is to help maintain and improve quality of life for family caregivers and those they care for by providing information, education, support and resources.

UPCAP Caregiver Resources:

• Classes and Workshops.  Trained professionals lead a variety of classes to help caregivers provide the best care and take care of themselves, too.  Our classes are proven to work!
• Caregiver Support.  From one-on-one caregiver consultations to connecting with other caregivers in a group setting, UPCAP offers support to caregivers in a variety of ways.
• “North of the Bridge – A Cool Place for Caregivers” blog features articles with helpful tips and information written especially for caregivers in the Upper Peninsula, but welcoming to caregivers everywhere.
