Illuminate Hope for Caregivers

The mission of Courage to Caregivers is to provide hope, support, and courage to caregivers and loved ones of those living with mental illness.

Supporting someone you love who is living with mental, chronic or serious illnesses can be stressful and may take a heavy toll on your personal health and well-being. In fact, research shows that the stress of being a caregiver can lead to caregiver burnout. This is exactly where Courage to Caregivers can make a difference.

With your help, we continue to expand the reach of our three programs - One-to-One Caregiver Peer Support, Breathing Meditation, and Group Coaching (Support Groups) and support caregivers to prevent caregiver burnout.

Courage to Caregivers is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization and your donation is tax-deductible within the guidelines of U.S. law. If your company matches gifts, we would appreciate your support in this way as well. 

We appreciate your support as we continue to make an impact on the lives of caregivers and their families. Thank you!

ONE-to-ONE CAREGIVER PEER SUPPORT

Ever feel alone in your journey of caring for someone you love? Our peer support program offers caregivers the opportunity to be matched with a trained volunteer who has “been there” and can provide validation, practical suggestions, and emotional support.

BREATHING MEDITATION

Our breathing meditation program allows caregivers to reclaim their breath. We know that meditation allows you to better manage day-to-day and critical stressful situations. We have found that utilizing proper breathing techniques is vital to the regulation of our stress levels.

GROUP COACHING (SUPPORT GROUPS)

When you support someone you love living with mental illness, it's common to feel isolated and alone. Our group coaching groups are jointly facilitated by a licensed social worker as well as a peer volunteer. They offer a unique approach and provide an environment that is positive and uplifting as well as focused on the caregiver's self-care.
