National Family Caregivers Month is coming up in November, and Southern Caregiver Resource Center is offering our community the chance to improve their physical and mental well-being. Join us for our annual Caregiver Strong Virtual 5K!

Starting on November 1st, participants will be able to begin the 5K "race" (about 3 miles) at their own pace. You may run all 3 miles at once, 1 mile at a time, or any combination that suits you! SCRC will send all registrants a guide to planning your run and tracking your progress; each participant will also receive an exclusive Finisher’s Certificate.

Pre-sale registration pricing is available through October 31st at caregivercenter.org/5K. All proceeds directly fund SCRC's free support services for caregivers, including education & training, short- & long-term care planning, case management, counseling & support groups, and more. Make every step count and encourage family caregivers to seek the support they need from SCRC!
