Each year, more Americans step up to become caregivers for their loved ones. This growing responsibility is quickly evolving into a nationwide crisis—affecting not only those in need but also the caregivers themselves and their families. Lost income, increased expenses, and the strain on personal well-being are just a few of the challenges they face.
Where does compassion end and crisis begin?
There is hope. And that’s what we’re exploring in Supporting Caregivers: Compassion in Crisis, a Hope & Healing Town Hall.
