There are a variety of things communities and organizations that work with youth can do to help young caregivers feel more supported and less alone.

• Offer after-hours support, including weekends and evenings
• Provide online support for convenience and privacy
• Create on-call support options for emergencies
• Post information about local crisis lines and provide resources to young carers about what to do in emergency or crisis situations
• Provide a safe and comfortable space where young caregivers can share their experiences and feelings
• Create programs and/or recreation opportunities, so they have a place to be themselves, have fun, and relax
• Create fundraising and public awareness activities and events that support young careers and provide them with opportunities to connect
