Outreach opportunity for you!

Are you looking for a way to connect with family caregivers in your community? Join Caregiver Village, a website that will be an entirely new sort of gathering place for family caregivers. Our team at aQuire has been busy working with the developers out of NYC, preparing an exciting support place for caregivers. Visit the site, register with your facebook login, and join as an Ambassador, qualifying you for a free year of membership. As the site grows, you’ll have a front row seat to connect with families who are looking for tips, suggestions and services to help them in their caregiving role.

If you’d like even more involvement, consider these options:

1) Host a virtual book club discussion group. Caregiver Village has opening for Hosts for groups organized around topics of interest like Parkinson’s Care, Autism Care and more. If you’re passionate about a topic and would like to facilitate a virtual discussion, contact Sharon.

2) Consider a special offer for Caregiver Village members. Can you offer free in-home assessments? Two hours of respite care at home? A day of respite in a facility? Remember, this is an outreach opportunity to a potential million plus family caregivers, so get creative! Send your ideas to Sharon.
