Resource Recommendation:

No Barriers Caregivers

No Barriers Family Caregiver Programming focuses on virtual and in-person events, outings, and experiences that will expand a family caregiver’s community, encourage and provide tools for critical and often forgotten self-care, and individual empowerment in order to live a No Barriers life. We also provide Self-Care Kits – made by caregivers for caregivers with some No Barriers Swag. Each month offers different goods by different caregivers so when you buy a kit you not only are taking time and permission to invest in you but giving back to family caregivers to earn an income and find a purpose and vision outside their role of the caregiver!
