You Don’t Have to Do This Alone.

Your caregiving story matters, and your voice can help others too

Caring for a loved one can sometimes feel isolating—but connection changes everything.

This National Family Caregivers Month, join us for a special Plug-in to Care webinar celebrating the power of community among caregivers. Together, we’ll explore how sharing your experiences can offer comfort, spark new ideas, and remind you that your story matters.

What You’ll Walk Away With

In this free training, you’ll discover:

  • Real examples of peer support that make caregiving easier
  • How to build lasting connections with caregivers who “get it”
  • Tips for finding judgment-free support online or locally
  • Insight into CAN’s partnership with Kindly Human and new peer tools

Join us to celebrate the strength of caregivers—and rediscover the power of connection, understanding, and community.
