FEBRUARY 14, 2022 “Strengthening Caregivers' Resilience Amidst a Loved One's Mental Illness ” @SJA Featuring Jeff Zuckerman, MSW, MA, author and editor  

Jeff will share his story, how a husband strengthened his resilience when confronted with chaos, despair, and ambiguous loss during a loved one’s late-onset bipolar disorder. Together we will explore how mental health stigma and discrimination can be reduced through humor, candor education and courage. We will reinterpret hope in a way that strengthens love and benefits caregivers' own well-being and faith. His 2020 memoir, Unglued: A Bipolar Love Story, was a 2021 Minnesota Book  Award finalist and won a silver medal from the Foreword Reviews Indie Book of the Year
