Caregivers need care, too.
When you’re caring for a child with complex needs, it’s easy to forget that your well-being matters too.
The Caregiver Commons is a welcoming community where caregivers can connect with others, explore creative interests, and make time for themselves through meaningful leisure and recreation.
Through art, food, movement, conversation, and community, we create opportunities for connection, creativity and renewal.

What happens at a session?
Every Caregiver Common session is a little different, but the goal is always the same:
To create a welcoming space where caregivers can connect, create and take a breath.
Create
Enjoy a simple creative activity such as art, crafting, journaling, cooking, or a community project. No experience required.
Connect
Share conversation, ideas, and everyday experiences with other caregivers who understand the realities of disability, neurodivergence, and complex care.
Recharge
Enjoy coffee, snacks, and a relaxed atmosphere where there is no pressure to perform, fix, or explain.
Leave Feeling a Little Less Alone
Whether you leave with a new friend, creative project, a helpful resource, or simply a lighter heart, we hope you leave feeling supported
Caregiver Commons is…
A creative community
A welcoming third space
A place to connect and belong
Time carved out for caregivers
Caregiver Commons is NOT…
Therapy
A parenting class
A formal support group
