Join tpt for a Conversation on Caregiving


TPT's Next Avenue Experience invites you to join 
the 10 Ways to Care campaign. 

Let’s elevate the conversation on caregiving. 

Our lives are built on human relationships. Son, daughter, father, mother, partner, spouse, friend, neighbor – these are all hats we wear, and sometimes we wear many of these hats at once. 

Whether or not we acknowledge it, caregiver is one more hat in our collection. We talk openly about being a good neighbor, friend, family member, parent, and partner. And though a good conversation would likely help us all be better caregivers, we don’t openly talk about it. 

At least not yet.

We need your voice – sign up to take part in the 10 Ways to Care campaign and conversation.

If caregiver is a hat you wear, this is an invitation to participate – to share experiences, get real resources, and find and provide support for people who are wearing many of the same hats as you.

From April 8 through May 8, we will discuss ten different aspects of caregiving. During these five weeks, we’ll talk about family dynamics, long-distance caregiving, self-care, and much more. When you sign up, you will receive a message delivered to your inbox twice each week. Each message tells a story that may be similar to yours, suggests a simple and impactful step you can take, and provides a real resource or two that might just be immensely useful. Each message encourages you and others to share  experiences. 

We look forward to hearing from you.

Caregiver support volunteers needed:     
RSVP can connect you to volunteer opportunities such as respite care, friendly visiting, errands and more.                                                                 
Volunteers 55 and over receive special benefits.
