You're Not Alone in the Middle

Caring for aging parents while raising your own kids is one of the hardest balancing acts in life, and most people are doing it without a roadmap. The Fall Expo was built specifically for Forest Lake’s sandwich generation: parents and adult children juggling caregiving, work, and family life all at once.

Real Answers for the Questions Keeping You Up at Night

Should Mom move in with us? How do we afford in-home care? What happens if Dad can’t live alone anymore? This fall, connect face-to-face with local experts in health services, housing options, and financial and estate planning, the same questions you’ve been Googling at midnight, answered by people who actually know Forest Lake.

One Afternoon, A Lifetime of Support

You don’t have to figure out elder care planning alone. In one free afternoon at the Forest Lake YMCA, walk away with real resources, trusted local contacts, and a clearer next step, so you can spend less time worrying and more time present with both generations depending on you.
