We’ve Got News

Hello Caregivers. You haven’t heard from us in a while, but good things are happening. Since our last post, we’ve seen a few positive actions for caregivers. They include:

- New states adopting paid family leave.

- And, a national strategy to support family caregivers

These actions are a step in the right direction. However, we find ourselves in another month of caregiver recognition. Challenges have not decreased. More tangible actions must be taken to recognize caregiver needs and develop supports to address those needs. While Megan and I work across projects to support caregivers, we’d like to introduce you to a special one. We’ve launched a new podcast called The Whole Caregiver!

This podcast focuses on caregivers, especially individuals that became caregivers at an early age. We share caregiver journeys and offer practical resources that support your caregiving journey. You can listen to our podcast on: Apple, Spotify, Amazon, and Podbean. We look forward to your feedback and comments.

Thank you and remember, your care is just as important as the person you provide caregiving for — always.

Erna and Megan
