WELCOME!

Welcome to an exciting new resource designed exclusively for family caregivers of loved ones with mental illness. Our aim is to empower you and your family to take on the challenges mental illness has brought into your lives with greater strength, skill, and clarity.

When someone you love has schizophrenia, schizo-affective disorder, bipolar disorder, or major depression, you face many tough questions:

  • What can I do to sustain a positive connection with my loved one?
  • How can I stay safe when my ill family member is enraged?
  • What should I do if my loved one is suicidal?
  • How can I preserve my own stability?

To ensure that families like yours have the answers they need, CareinAction founder Dr. Bea Dixon assembled an expert crew of psychologists, counselors, and educators. The guidebooks they've developed deliver in-depth answers to your most pressing questions in language you can understand.
