AZPM Presents Caregiving Screening in Green Valley
2025-05-27 18:00 - 20:00 | DesertView Performing Arts Center, 39900 South Clubhouse Drive, Tucson, Arizona, 85739
Caregiving is centered on the personal experiences of caregivers providing for loved ones, and the challenges and triumphs they face each day. As the number of caregivers declines, and the number of individuals requiring care in our country increases, the challenges grow. Caregivers require differing types and levels of support. At times, caregiving burdens can seem unbearable, regardless of resources. The “needs gap” for information may be greater for caregivers than for care recipients. The film will explore these issues and shine a light on innovation for 21st-century caregiving.

A panel discussion will follow, moderated by Tom McNamara, host of Arizona Illustrated.
