Testimonials
Marienne T.
Itâs like group therapy without the co-payâsupportive, fun, and full of real talk. I do love that it's a space where I feel supported and understood.
Chris L.
Most people donât understand the weight caregivers carry, but here, everyone just gets it. That sense of belonging has been life-changing for me.
Belinda B.
I took care of my husband until his passing, and I only wish groups like Caregivers Connect had existed during and for my experience. I love their approachâhumor, belonging, and genuine support. Now, I tell everyone I meet whoâs caring for someone with dementia about this group.
FAQs
Your Questions Answered - Helping You Care Better and Stress Less.
How can I join Caregivers Connect?
Join our community by visiting our website or email.
Are there any costs involved in joining your support groups or utilizing your services?
Most of our support group activities are totally freeâbecause we know caregivers already pay enough in coffee, gas, and patience. âđđ A few specialized workshops may have a small fee, but to keep things simple, itâs just a one-time cost of $19.97 to join Caregivers Connect. Thatâs less than what you probably spent on takeout last nightâand way more nourishing. We keep costs minimal so you can focus on what really matters: support, laughter, and maybe finally finishing that cup of coffee while itâs still hot.
What types of caregiving situations does Caregivers Connect support?
At Caregivers Connect, we support caregivers in all kinds of situationsâwhether youâre juggling doctorâs appointments, managing medications, answering the same question 27 times a day, or just trying to drink your coffee while itâs still hot. âđ
We believe in supporting you first, because if the caregiver isnât well, the loved one ends up with cereal for dinner and the TV remote lost forever. Thatâs why our community is here for you: ask questions, learn new tricks, share your wins (and fails), and laugh through the chaos together. đ
How often do the support groups meet?
𤣠Caregivers Connect will try to meet once a month. Keyword: try.
Life happens, coffee spills, alarms donât go off⌠you get it.
So keep one eye (and maybe half an eyebrow) on our community calendar for the actual schedule. đ
Do you offer individual or group counseling services for caregivers?
Nope. If we added therapist to our already mile-long list of caregiver titles, our brains might just short-circuit. đ¤Ż
Thatâs exactly why weâre hereâto be each otherâs support system, unofficial therapists, and cheerleaders (minus the pom-poms⌠unless youâve got some handy). So please, jump in, engage, and letâs keep this group the safe space itâs meant to be. đ
Will we consider bringing in a professional to help keep us sane? OF COURSE! And you bet weâll announce it loud enough that nobody misses it. đ
This was probably the answer you were looking for moreso. đ
How can Caregivers Connect help me manage caregiver burnout?
Well⌠we canât magically beam you to a tropical island with bottomless piĂąa coladas (weâve tried, the Wi-Fi doesnât reach đ´đš).
What we can do is offer a space where you donât have to wear another hatâbecause letâs be honest, caregivers already juggle enough. Here, youâve got peer support, shared laughs, a few sanity-saving tips, and people who âget itâ without needing a long explanation.
Again, will we occasionally bring in pros to sprinkle some expert wisdom and help us keep our marbles intact? Absolutely! In the meantime, we won't sing any sounds similiar to 'Burn Baby Burn" . . .
