We are all Caregivers. Kids, adults, neighbours, friends, doctors, patients. But sometimes it can be hard to make sense of our role as Caregivers. We often don't know our own story until someone asks us to tell it - and listens. Follow the journey of 9 Caregivers, as they work with health narrative specialist Mike Lang to create a Digital Story about their caregiving experience. Through the process they not only find their story, they learn how to share it with the people that matter most to them. These stories explore what it truly means to be there for the people in our lives.
Mike Lang (Director) and story participants will be in attendance to participate in a discussion!
