Caregiver Resources
Because We Care
A Guide for People Who Care
Table of Contents -- (Disclaimer)
An online resource guide for the growing number of Americans who
are caring for an older family member, adult child with disabilities,
or older friend. This Guide provides information and a range of
suggestions to make caregiving easier and more successful--whether
you are the caregiver or the person who ensures that your family
member or friend receives the best possible care from others.
Since this Guide contains many links to outside references, the
online html version is recommended; for better printing, a PDF
version is available also.
