Scheduling a regular meet-up can be challenging for caregivers of children, adults, elders and other loved ones, who must be ready for changes of plan anytime. In response to members’ feedback, this year the NASW Freelance Committee created a Peer Support for Caregivers Pilot Project so that any NASW member could chat with a buddy informally. As ScienceWriters2024 approaches, we’ve set aside time for caregivers to network, share resources and commiserate in a virtual space.
This meetup is open to all NASW members who are caregivers, including those who joined the Peer Support for Caregivers Pilot Project and those who might be interested in future iterations of that project. Join us and share your ideas for how NASW can support caregivers.
#SciWriSocial
Is juggling jobs and caregiving work a source of stress? You are not alone. In 2024, the NASW Freelance Committee launched a Peer Support for Caregivers Pilot Project so that any interested NASW member (not just freelancers) could choose a buddy from a list of their peers for accountability and camaraderie.
