[March 07, 2013]
The Area Agency on Aging for
Lincolnland, in cooperation with Senior Citizens of Logan County,
has scheduled a Lunch and Learn program March 19 for informal
caregivers of older adults and grandparents and other relatives
raising children. Steve Iden, senior attorney with the Land of
Lincoln Legal Assistance Foundation, will present information
regarding "Do I Need a Will and/or a Trust." The program will be
from noon to 1 p.m. at the Oasis Senior Center, 501 Pulaski St. in
Lincoln.

Lunch will be provided, and preregistration is required. There is no
charge to attend. This presentation is part of a series of Lunch
and Learn programs. The goal of the series is to provide practical
information that will help caregivers continue to provide quality
care to others while maintaining balance in their own lives.
Informal caregivers are those unpaid people such as family
members, friends and neighbors who provide assistance to someone who
is to some degree incapacitated and in need of help with tasks such
as grocery shopping, bill paying, cooking or personal care.
Grandparents or other relatives raising grandchildren are those who
have accepted primary responsibility for raising one or more
children through age 18.
