People helping older parents often need to hear from others going through the same journey. 

That’s why we’ve created a truly private online membership community where you can vent, get perspective, encouragement, and validation to feel supported.

This community is a space where discussions with people like you are facilitated by Dr. Kernisan’s team of sensitive, caring eldercare experts — so you get peer support plus invaluable input from professionals. 

And when you need help finding resources, just post your question in this forum. Dr. Kernisan’s team will help you find what you need faster.
