We invite you to add your voice to ours by contacting your state representative and state senator and asking for their support of restored funding for Alzheimer's Caregiver Respite!

Email your legislators at the State House today! It's quick and easy to do.

If you've ever provided care for a loved one with dementia, you know that it can be nearly impossible
to take a break.  That's exactly why the Alzheimer's Caregiver Respite Program exists --
to support caregivers and their mental health as their responsibilities grow more and more difficult.
 
Respite is not just the right thing to do.  It's vital to South Carolina's long term care system.  
 
Please ask our state legislators to restore funding for Alzheimer's Caregiver Respite to the pre-recession level of $1 million through the Department of Mental Health.
