    Hi everyone! I am the Program Lead at the Ontario Caregiver Organization, and want to share a resource we launched in response to Young Caregiver Day of Action which was March 16th. Young Caregivers Connect has lots of content created by and for youth, as well as an online discussion forum (moderated by staff) where young people can connect with each other. Our target audience is anyone who provides care under 25 in Ontario, but anyone can sign up. Here is the link: youngcaregiversconnect.ca

    Check it out! If you work with young people or are a young person, I hope you will find this helpful. Happy to answer any questions!

    Reflecting on the conversation that @kathleen and I hosted in June and the insights that Liam and Jillian so generously shared, I summarized four considerations to support young caregivers on REX Blog this week. Check it out!
