Benevilla’s Workshops: Empowering Seniors and Caregivers
Benevilla is proud to provide a series of free educational workshops designed to empower caregivers, families, and older adults in our community with trusted information and practical resources. As a leading nonprofit serving the West Valley, Benevilla offers these workshops to help you navigate senior care, caregiving responsibilities, legal and financial planning, and other essential topics. Our free workshops feature expert speakers and provide helpful tools to promote personal well-being, independence, and peace of mind.
Free respite care during the educational workshops at the Benevilla Education Center is available through any of our Life Enrichment Programs. This free respite care is only available during the time of the workshop and is based on space availability within the programs. If your loved one is already enrolled in a Life Enrichment Program, they will need to use one of their regularly scheduled days. Please visit our Free Respite page for additional details.
To reserve your space for an upcoming workshop, complete the registration form at the bottom of this page, or call Benevilla at 623-584-4999.
