Testimonials
“Congratulations on your informative, easy-to-navigate site. I found it in seconds through a Google search. I live in Atlanta, Georgia, have an older sister living in Victoria and am extremely grateful for the knowledge I’ve gained through your site. Thank you again for the great work you are doing.”

“Thank you for the information package and application form for Network News. I look forward to receiving my first copy. In the booklets and brochures I have found so many valuable pieces of information. One of which, is the respect and acceptance for our Mom’s right to autonomy, for as long as she can manage and remain safe. A general statement, but as you know, one of the many overwhelming situations families face on a daily basis. We can now refocus our attentions with a better understanding of our Mom’s needs and the needs of the caregiver. Thank you again to the Family Caregivers’ Network, your support and access to information.”
- C. L., family caregiver
“I took several of your very affordable workshops during the years that I was the primary caregiver for my mother and learned a great deal. I am a big advocate of your organization and have been able to pass your website link along to people from my office. Thanks again.”
