Editor’s Message
Spring is a time of change. The weather is starting to get warmer, you feel the urge to clean, and your income tax return is due.

As a caregiver, spring can be a time for a change too. Are you in need of support? Looking to connect with other caregivers? Do you want to share your story with others? In this issue of our e-newsletter, we are introducing the new and improved discussion forums. Come and see how you can connect and share with other caregivers.

We also have an updated list of caregiving information available in your province or territory, a new blog post on how to talk to your manager about your caregiving responsibilities, and a new resource about medication.

So this spring, take care of your income taxes, take the time get connect with other caregivers and get informed about information and resources for you. Go to Caregiver Connect to learn more.
