Betty has been caring for her mom since her dad passed away in 2017. Betty works full-time, in addition to her caregiving duties. Betty has to coordinate her work schedule and ensure her mom's appointments are scheduled, make sure her mom has plenty of supplies on hand, and help her mom get the memory care she needs. Betty would like to see more funding made available to family caregivers since caregiving can be a huge financial strain.

Most of Mark's days consist with him monitoring Lenny's moods and activities, and being able to anticipate all of Lenny's needs. Mark's message to fellow caregivers is to get respite, take care of yourself, and find your community of support, whether through a support group or family or other caregivers in the community.

Nicole has been caring for her daughter Brooke for 12 years. Nicole has the following message on what she would like to see changed for Arizona caregivers: "I would love to see Arizona bridge the gap between caregivers who desire to give back and the systems in place that are supposed to support them but are currently underemployed. Allowing parents opportunities to volunteer with paid stipends, work temporarily, part-time, full-time from home, in these agencies would allow caregivers the opportunity to utilize their skills outside of the home and feel the value they have.
