Share The Care is a process and model for group caregiving. It's also a book, a community, and an educational program.

ShareTheCaregiving™, Inc. is a non-profit organization which seeks to improve the "quality of life" of persons who are seriously ill, disabled, or experiencing the challenges of aging, and to reduce stress, depression, isolation and economic hardship often suffered by their family caregivers.

Caregiving responsibility tends to fall upon one or two family members, often resulting in caregiver burnout, isolation of those in need of care, and high rates of institutionalization for patients lacking adequate social supports. The Share The Care™ model is a new paradigm in which ordinary people pool their efforts to help ease the burden on family caregivers and help those without family nearby. It's a cost-effective, supportive, community-based alternative for caregiving.
