Caregiver Action Network is bringing together family caregivers to talk about what it is really like to support someone who receives a long-acting injectable (LAI) treatment.

We want to hear about your experiences, including how treatment was first discussed, conversations with health care providers, insurance and access challenges, appointment or transportation logistics, and the day-to-day realities of helping a loved one stay connected to treatment.

The goal is to learn directly from caregivers about what has helped, what has been difficult, and what could better support families navigating LAI treatment.

Caregiving can change slowly or all at once, and many people do not realize they have become caregivers until the responsibilities are already overwhelming.

Caregiver Action Network wants to hear from family caregivers about what those early stages really felt like, what became hardest to manage, and what kinds of support could have made a meaningful difference sooner. We’ll talk about the pressures caregivers juggle, the barriers that make it difficult to find or accept help, and whether technology and other tools make caregiving easier or simply add another task to the list. Your experiences can help shape better support for caregivers before they reach a crisis point.

We Are ILL (WAI) is a patient advocacy organization dedicated to redefining what “sick” looks like for Black women living with chronic illness. Our mission is to support, educate, and unite Black women living with MS, lupus, or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) through culturally responsive education, advocacy, and community engagement. Recognizing that patient outcomes are deeply influenced by the people who stand beside them, WAI is expanding its ecosystem of care to include support partners.

Grounded in caregiver feedback from Wellness Weekend, this program centers the voice of the support partner — affirming their resilience while equipping them with practical tools to navigate medical, emotional, and systemic challenges. The series will also launch an ongoing Support Partner Connection Circle, extending community and impact beyond the four-session experience.

• Build foundational understanding of MS and Lupus
• Address burnout, boundaries, and sustainability
• Connect with peers in a culturally responsive space

Session Topics:

• Session 1: Someone I Love Has MS or Lupus – Disease literacy and understanding disparities
• Session 2: Someone I Love — and I Matter Too – Boundaries, mental wellbeing, sustainability

Each session includes professional facilitation, expert insight, structured discussion, and a post-session resource infographic.

Participants will receive:

• A Digital Support Toolkit (symptom tracker, appointment prep checklist, communication prompts, advocacy guide)
• Post-session branded resource infographics
• A printable Love in Action Support Partner Certificate
• Invitation to the ongoing Support Partner Connection Circle

The target audience consists of support partners of Black women living with MS or Lupus — including spouses, partners, family, and chosen family — from those newly navigating diagnosis to long-term support roles.

Grief doesn’t move in a straight line— it comes in waves. And it doesn’t look the same from one person to the next. It can show up in a thousand different ways: emotionally, physically, and even in how we think day to day.

That’s why, in this Caregiver Conversation by Carallel, we’re making space for all the ways that grief may show up— and reminding ourselves that there’s no single “right” way.

We’ll talk through common myths that can make grief feel harder, how to support yourself or someone you love as you move through, and practical, strategies for coping over time. If you’re grieving something big or small, recent or long ago, we invite you in.
