MNRAAA offers class leader training and support for:

  • Caregiver Coaching
  • Chronic Disease Self-Management Program
  • Diabetes Self-Management Program
  • Tai Ji Quan
  • Matter of Balance
  • Powerful Tools for Caregivers

Your generosity on this day makes a difference far beyond the 24-hour giving event. Please join us on November 16, 2017, for Give to the Max Day and help us continue to change the lives of older adults and their caregivers.
