    Description

    Family Caregiver Peer Support Volunteer
    • * Due to our insurance limitations, we are only able to support volunteers in North America over the age of 18.

    One-to-One Caregiver Peer Support is one of three programs of Courage to Caregivers. This program connects caregivers with volunteers who have experience caring for a loved one with a mental illness. Volunteers provide personalized, one-to-one support to their assigned caregiver. We are particularly seeking those with experience caring for a spouse and those with experience caring for a child.

    The volunteer's role is to listen, care, share personal experiences and empower caregivers to have hope. Training is available through a series of training videos. Volunteers are also provided with a guide containing community resources and ongoing support throughout the program.

    Courage to Caregivers, Inc. is based in Northeast Ohio. Support is provided for the One-to-One Caregiver Peer Support program is provided virtually. Volunteers and participants live throughout the United States.
