How to connect with other folks in the same boat 🚣
Hi ,
We want to make it easier for you to find other caregivers in similar situations, so we've added groups. Right now we have groups based on types of care provided, as well as where in the world you're living.
Join a group, update your profile, and start connecting with other folks who understand what you're going through. The forums are a great resource for connecting with other caregivers, whether you're looking for solutions that have worked for other people or just someone to listen.
And, of course, if you don't already have an account, you can join the community by signing up here.
Best,
PS. If you haven't read Informal Support: It means we don't get paid or Programs that actually pay family caregivers I suggest you check them out.

The real reason we don't pay family caregivers
The levels of care required are not natural. So many caregivers face a burden that is too great to carry on their own.

Grief & loneliness: Rescued by a feral cat
During times of stress or loss we can be at increased risk for injuries and setbacks. One goal of Body Aware Grieving is to avoid creating new problems while we learn to recover from any current difficulties.

The bedtime story I rewrote for my son with Down Syndrome
Happy birthday, Kaleb! In some ways, I feel that it’s my birthday, too, since it signifies the beginning of my own transformation.
