Recognize National Caregiver Awareness Month this May and “Help Caregivers THRIVE!” Caregiving can be overwhelming. Supporting family caregivers with kindness, compassion, and community resources is vital to caregiver well-being and the ability to sustain care.


The Alberta Caregiver Collective has created a media package you can use in your May National Caregiver Awareness Month promotions so that we have a unified message across all platforms in the country. You can download all resources below and a Social Media Guide for the copy to use in your posts!


The collective will also be planning a Webinar in May, so stay tuned for the CORE post on our Events page!
