About Us
Learn about our mission, our story, and the people behind Chosen Caregiver Support.
Our Story
Chosen Caregiver Support was founded in 2015 by a small group of former family caregivers who had walked the difficult, often isolating path of caring for aging parents and family members with serious illnesses.
Having experienced the overwhelming demands — emotional, financial, and physical — they recognized a significant gap in support systems for unpaid family caregivers. Too many people were suffering in silence, unsure where to turn.
From a small support group in a local community center, Chosen Caregiver Support has grown into a nationally recognized non-profit, serving thousands of caregivers each year through direct services, education, and community.
Our Mission
To empower, equip, and encourage family caregivers through education, peer support, and practical resources — so they can provide compassionate care without sacrificing their own health and wellbeing.
Our Core Values
Compassion
We meet caregivers exactly where they are, with empathy and without judgment.
Dignity
Every caregiver and care recipient deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
Community
We believe no one should walk the caregiving journey alone.
Education
We provide practical knowledge to help caregivers feel confident and equipped.
