We are excited to be hosting the first-ever Canadian Young Caregivers Conference with Toronto Metropolitan University! Toronto Metropolitan University For more info on the conference visit: youngcaregiverscan.ca/youngcaregiver… or contact [email protected]

#Caregiving is work — but isn't paid like it. But we also know if we invest in #caregivers, it will relieve pressure on the system. Financial support would be a cost-effective solution for everyone in #onpoli: ontariocaregivercoalition.ca/caregiver-fina… #FamilyCaregiverDay #NationalCaregiverDay

"When the organization that I've been referred to for assistance, and for whom I've just waited on hold for 45 minutes, tells me they can't help and refers me to another organization. And then I'm put on hold again." — Lauren #FamilyCaregiverDay #NationalCaregiverDay

"I would help my Nana walk down the stairs safely by holding her hand. Something that makes me scream is PSWs coming early and disturbing our sleep." — Jonah, 8 Caregiving affects everyone. Helping them would too. #FamilyCaregiverDay #NationalCaregiverDay

Yes, we did share how #caregiving can be a bit of a horror movie. But we can find a happy ending together. If you're a #caregiver or want to advocate in #onpoli for a solution beyond #familycaregiverday follow us & join us at ontariocaregivercoalition.ca #NationalCaregiverDay

On Family Caregiver Day, the OCC sat down with Dave Trafford's Podcasts, host of On The Ledge, to talk about the often invisible role of family caregivers in holding together our fragile healthcare and social systems. You can listen to our conversation now: tinyurl.com/29bpfzkm
