I posted a question awhile ago about what resources family caregivers are using to find support. I wanted to offer up another resource that can help caregivers with the necessary social, emotional and daily task support needed to care for a loved one. CaringBridge is a global nonprofit that provides free personal websites/blogs for everyone on a health journey to directly communicate to their personal community (you establish the privacy settings) to rally support. You can journal, comment, post pictures, use their daily task planner or link your own, link a Meal Train or prayer chain, start or link a personal fundraiser, etc. There is no cost...it is a free platform (ad-free, personal data protected) that has been around for 22 years that can be your one place to communicate broadly and coordinate care with your loved ones -- it's where you tell people know what you need and how to help. I'm sharing as VA recently signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the nonprofit and medical centers should be sharing information. You can find out more at https://military.caringbridge.org/military
