Generation care : the new culture of caregiving
by Jennifer N. Levin
"More than 10 million Millennials are caring for aging parents before they've been able to fully launch their own careers and consider starting their own families, and that's not including the incalculable numbers of people affected by long COVID. Yet noone is naming this problem, talking about how it feels, or offering resources to ease the pressure of Millennial caregiver burnout. Jennifer N. Levin was 32 when her father was diagnosed with a rare degenerative illness. As she struggled with few resources and little support, she created Caregiver Collective, a national online support group for Millennial caregivers. Now Levin brings the wisdom from her own experience and that of her support group to Generation Care, a comprehensive look at this generation's culture of care. Generation Care is filled with the voices of caregivers, expert commentary and research, and is a roadmap to the solutions that can begin helping people now as well as build the policies of the future.
