Article excerpt

Caring for a person with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease can be a daunting task, especially for family members who have suddenly been thrust into the role. But you have more support than you might think.

There are multiple organizations across the country that have expertise in treating Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, as well as patient advocacy groups that prioritize the rights of people with cognitive impairment.

These organizations are equipped to educate family caregivers about how to care for their loved one and plan for the future, so their care needs can be met as their condition progresses. Many also host regular support groups for caregivers to alleviate the emotional toll of caregiving, which can help keep you functioning at your best.

The feature spotlights CAN’s educational resources, peer support community, and free National Caregiver Help Desk, recognizing the organization’s commitment to helping families navigate the complexities of caregiving with greater confidence and connection.

For nearly three decades, CAN has championed the needs and voices of family caregivers, working to ensure that no one has to navigate caregiving alone. We’re grateful to Yahoo Health for this recognition, which reflects both the strength of our mission and the dedication behind the work we do every day. We’re equally proud to be recognized alongside organizations advancing care and support for families affected by Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

As the needs of family caregivers continue to grow, so does our commitment to meeting them with the resources, compassion, and advocacy they deserve.
