OUR NETWORK

Caregiver Sanctuary Network

Bringing caregiver support into the community.

Caregiver support shouldn't be limited to a single building, program, or service. We believe caregivers deserve to feel welcomed, understood, and supported wherever life takes them.

The Caregiver Sanctuary Network is Legacy's growing network of local businesses, organizations, and community spaces committed to creating more caregiver-friendly environments.

Through dementia education, community partnerships, and wellness opportunities, we're helping everyday spaces become places where caregivers can connect, prioritize their well-being, and feel supported beyond their caregiving responsibilities.

Every Caregiver Sanctuary Partner completes Legacy's caregiver-friendly and dementia-informed training, equipping them with practical tools to better understand and support family caregivers and individuals living with dementia.

Together, we're making caregiver support a natural part of community life.
