Connecting online isn’t for everyone. If you’d prefer to connect one on one with another caregiver like you, you might be interested in the OCO’s Peer Support Program. We have a bunch of Peer Mentors who are young caregivers ready to connect with you. This is only available for people 18 and over. They can call you weekly to check in, see how you’re doing, and to share what’s helped them through their challenges. Here is the link: https://ontariocaregiver.ca/peersupport/find-a-mentor/

Wow! This is great! I was a young caregiver for my grandmother with dementia. She lived at home with us until she moved into LTC. My friends didn’t really get it because they weren’t going through anything similar and eventually, I stopped inviting my friends over to hang out at home because I wanted to avoid talking to them about my grandmother. I wish this program was around when I was a young caregiver so I could have connected with someone who can relate and understand what I was going through.
