Family Caregiver Alliance National Center on Caregiving
235 Montgomery Street
San Francisco, CA 94104

For younger people, caring for an aging or ailing family member, while rewarding at times, may mean sacrificing social interactions or missing milestones. With social media, family caregivers have a front-row seat to the highlight reels of their peers, which may cause them to experience FOMO, or fear of missing out. While anyone can experience FOMO, it can be particularly acute for younger family caregivers who may feel as though their responsibilities prevent them from fully participating in life. However, with access to the right resources and support systems, it is possible to minimize the impact of FOMO on mental health and learn not only to survive, but thrive as a family caregiver. When: Thursday, April 18, from 12 noon to 1 p.m. (Pacific time)
