Abstract

This paper provides a description of a pilot (feasibility) study conducted with Iranian caregivers in northern CA. The intervention program was based on a previously successful program with ethnically diverse dementia family caregivers; it was “tailored” for Persian caregivers, most of whom were Farsi-speaking. A brief description of the intervention is provided, along with a summary of evaluation data collected. Caregivers were very appreciative of the opportunity both to talk about their caregiving distress, and to learn skills for better coping. A complete Farsi translation of the culturally modified “coping with caregiving” class was one of the endproducts of this pilot study.
