Handy Helen classes start May 7, 2013
Many older women may have relied on their husband to be the "handyman" around the house, but what happens when their husbands are not able to do those chores due to health or memory loss issues? For some women, the added task of home repairs becomes an additional stress and expense. Handy Helen is a new class designed to empower female caregivers (age 60 and over) with the skills they need to tackle minor home maintenance projects.
