Caregiver Landing Page

At some point in our lives, most of us will be called to care for a relative or companion – what is known today as a family caregiver. More than 4.4 million people in the United States currently serve as unpaid caregivers to a family member or close friend. Adult children working full time jobs find themselves caring for their aging parents. Men and women become caregivers to a spouse or life partner with an unexpected critical illness or injury. Aging parents provide care for their daughters and sons with developmental disabilities while coping with their own changing needs. Remarried couples are sharing caregiving responsibilities for a child with mental illness while blending their new families.

While each of these caregiving scenarios are different, they all share a common thread that includes physical, emotional, and spiritual components. We are here to direct you to support services that can make your life easier and more balanced. Use our database of resources to connect to other websites of interest to caregivers. Call 770-677-9432 or email Caregiver CARE Atlanta for more information about the services we can provide.
