“Let’s Get Away Together” is a program offered by the Family Caregiver Alliance (FCA) that aims to provide a virtual travel experience for caregivers and the people they care for, allowing them to explore locations and cultures through interactive sessions, even while staying at home; essentially, a way to “get away” together through virtual activities.
This series is comprised of interactive sessions with each week focusing on a new place or cultural activity, while incorporating storytelling, music, poetry writing, and/or a simple craft. Each session will include a follow-up message filled with tips, activities, and recipes for families to continue to enjoy after the virtual trip. The focus of each group is to explore a new world, experience a variety of engaging opportunities, and enjoy a sense of camaraderie and community.
Let’s Get Away Together is intended to be an enjoyable activity for family caregivers and the person they care for. Those receiving care who are able to participate in the discussion and activities are encouraged to attend with their family caregiver.
