Our program

We recognize the care for a person with a chronic illness or disability is not complete without addressing the needs of the caregiver.

Focusing on caregivers of persons with Alzheimer’s or other dementias, Caring for the Caregiver is dedicated to improving the quality of life for family caregivers and those they care for with evidence-based services, support, education and research with value on the caregiver’s health, skills and resilience.
