25% of dementia caregivers are part of the sandwich generation. You are not alone!

Careist was created to build an online community of #dementia caregivers in #Minnesota -if you're looking for support & resources, you're invited!

Image of three generations, the word caregiver very large above them, and the Text in the box reads: Maybe you just got your own little family established when you realized your parent needed more help. Maybe you can continue to offer support from afar, or maybe you are considering moving them closer–maybe even, somehow, into your home. Maybe you can manage with your current job, or maybe you will need to change course and find remote work. Maybe you are, in fact, a superhuman, but also maybe you wish you had more help. Whatever your care situation, you are not alone!

It is the mission of Careist to create a community comprised of/welcoming to/grateful for immigrants. Creating a better world for #caregivers and their loved ones (**for everyone**) is not possible with division, exclusion, or hate. Period! 2/2

Careist rejects racism in all forms, including the inhumane attack on immigrant communities by this new administration–be it through rhetoric or action.

The economy of the U.S. and the state of #Minnesota –especially the #care sector–would be shattered without #immigrants. 1/2
