For US friends: CurePSP carer relief fund

Just saw this in my Facebook news feed - sounded good.

The Cherie Levien Quality of Life Fund was created to allow carepartners to take some time off from the rigors of caregiving while at the same time knowing that professional services are in place for their loved one. Research indicates that even temporary or intermittent relief of caregiving demands can help reduce stress and improve the quality of day-to-day life for carepartners as well as for the person who is suffering with the disease.

CurePSP will collaborate with Griswold Home Care, (griswoldhomecare.com), who will provide home-care service for families who have been awarded a grant. Application forms will be available via website and in print.

The grant amount is $2500 and is to be used over the scope of 1 year from approval. Grants are limited and not all applicants will receive a grant; resubmissions are allowed and encouraged.

(Read more via the above link - there is also an application form)

I just saw this a few days ago too. Sounds like it could be very helpful for those who cannot afford a caregiver.

Maybe you should repost your post. I did not see your post until this morning.

I don't think I have figured out how to see all posts on this site.

Thanks for sharing this information!
