The conference will again focus on issues facing grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. This year, a special evening session is being held on the evening of Sept. 14 to allow grandparents to share their concerns and issues with the people who can do something about them. It will begin at 7 p.m. in the Gold Crown room. More than 20 social services programs will participate in an information fair that will be open before the conference begins each day and at noon. Mental health counselors will be available on the first day to conduct small group counseling sessions for participants who wish to participate.
Financial assistance is available for qualifying grandparents.
