Online Closed Facebook Support Groups for Kinship Caregivers

If you are a relative raising a relative, you can join a private Facebook group for support. I have found the groups to be extremely helpful.

The groups offer members 24/7 support from other kinship caregivers from the convenience of our own home (or on the go if you have internet access for your Smartphone or other mobile device).

For the United States, in the Facebook search bar, enter “Kinship Caregiver’s of America” or copy and paste this link to your browser: http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/KinsipCaregiversUS/

For the United Kingdom, in the Facebook search bar, enter “Kinship Foster Carers Group” or copy and paste this link to your browser: https://www.facebook.com/groups/171249696246133/

If you have any trouble, please leave me a comment in this blog and I will try to help you.
