West County - Dementia Caregiver Support Group
Supporting a loved one who has dementia often brings deep emotional strain. Many caregivers experience anticipatory grief, the sorrow that arises when someone is still physically present but no longer the same cognitively or emotionally. This no-cost support group provides a warm, safe place to share experiences, connect with others facing similar challenges, and learn practical ways to navigate dementia-related grief. Discussion focuses on mutual understanding, coping strategies, and encouragement throughout this difficult journey.

CALIXA Apartment HomesFemmes & Thems: MTG Commander Night
A welcoming monthly meetup created by and for women, femme-identifying, and non-binary Magic players gathers for Commander games at Zander’s Game House in Camarillo. Bring a deck led by a favorite legend, shuffle up with others, and settle in for friendly battles where every approach is embraced, from intricate combo builds and massive creatures to relaxed, feel-good play. The intention is to offer a supportive space for connection and comfort among people who are often underrepresented in gaming. To honor that purpose, men and masc-identifying people, of any orientation, are asked to support from the sidelines and attend other Magic: The Gathering nights open to all. Entry is $5 per person.
