This information was passed along by a nurse in our stake:

Please pass this information along to everyone who may benefit.  I am giving the class at minimum fee of $35 (to cover cost of book and supplies) so $$ isn’t a barrier for anyone.  If the cost is a problem for someone, we can work out something.  The class is for folks who are (or will soon be) caring for a loved one, and also for people interested in getting some training so they can work as a caregiver.
