Whether you are caring for an elderly parent with dementia, a spouse or partner, a child or a sibling with developmental disabilities, or another family member, there is no question that continuous caregiving can, at times, be overwhelming. November is a time to recognize and honor family caregivers across the country, offering an opportunity to raise awareness of caregiving issues, educate communities, and increase support for caregivers.
The air is crisp and back-to-school season has arrived. While June may seem a long way off, it is important to begin preparing now so the transition to adult services is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
