One more way to get support, 24/7.

You’re already on Facebook, right?

Let’s keep things simple and stick with the tools you’re already using. We all check Facebook, now you can use that as a way to stay connected with other caregivers.

A safe space to talk, around the clock

We have several private Facebook groups just for caregivers.

We have a main group where any and all caregivers are welcome. This is a great place to find support and answers from other caregivers any hour of the day or night. Because the main group has so many people in it (and so much activity!) it can take over your Facebook feed.

We have several topic-specific Facebook groups, too. These groups are smaller and the other caregivers in the group likely have a bit more in common with you. We create new groups based on who’s talking, so let us know if there’s a group you’d like to see added.

There’s no need to pick just one group — you can be in as many of our private Facebook groups as you’d like.

Young Caregivers

Here's a place for people under 35 to share their experiences and support each other. This group welcomes all young caregivers, regardless of who you're caring for or how many hours you spend providing care.

After Caregiving

Life goes on after caregiving ends. Some of us are here to grapple with grief. Others are celebrating recoveries. All of us are forever changed by the experience.

After Caregiving: Transitions

Not all relationships survive caregiving. This is a group for people who are estranged or distanced from someone they once provided support to.

Long-term Care

Some conditions are life-long, others are simply long lasting. Here's a place to talk about caregiving that lasts for years.

The best information on caregiving

We’re constantly scouring the web for the information that’s most helpful and interesting to caregivers and sharing it on our Facebook page.

Sometimes it’s the experiences of other caregivers, maybe it’s a great tip, or it might be the latest news impacting the lives of caregivers. We like to share some feel-good stories and videos, too.

We get some lively discussions going on our Facebook page. Just remember that all Facebook pages are public.

Found a great article or video that other caregivers need to see? Post it to the page!

How private is this?

Anything on a Facebook page is public.

Anything in one of our Facebook groups can only be seen by members of that group.

It sounds simple, but it can be hard to tell in your news feed. There’s an easy way to check!

Under the name of the person who posted something, there’s a time stamp and a little icon. That icon shows you who can see the post and any comments.

This little group icon means the post is only visible to members of that group:

And this little globe icon means the post and any comments are public:

Life is pretty lonely being a caregiver, but I’m glad there’s this place to connect with people who are in similar situations.

I want to thank you, for all the support given through this group, there are times I felt like giving up and that no one understood the scope of caregiving, and the toll it takes on a person and a relationship, I am so grateful for your kindness and the support and understanding I get from reading posts on here and feeling like I am not alone after all.

There are always good and bad days. I try to remain positive but I can get so frustrated sometimes. Then I always feel guilty after I get frustrated. I’m glad I found this page. The motivational quotes and articles always help.
