Care for Caregivers would like to thank The Alzheimer’s Association for their contributions to this site and for the great work that they do. The information and services they provide Caregivers and those they’re caring for is invaluable. I would also like to thank all of those family and professional caregivers who find themselves in the trenches every day caring for these very special individuals. The love and care you provide this population is remarkable and they are blessed to have you in their lives.
