Support for the person doing the caring.
Caregiving is some of the most meaningful work there is — and some of the most exhausting. We're here for you, not just the person you're caring for.
Why this matters.
Most caregivers don't realize how much they're carrying until something starts to give. You deserve the same quality of attention you give to your loved one.
- You haven't had a full night's sleep in weeks.
- You feel guilty whenever you take time for yourself.
- Friends ask how you're doing and you don't know what to say.
- You're starting to wonder how long you can keep this up.
HōttoCare is there for you.
We pair you with people who get it — licensed social workers, caregiver coaches, and peers who've walked this road. Whether you need a real conversation, a break, or someone to listen at 2am, we're here.

Caregivers come to us when…
You're running on empty
Burnout is creeping in and you need help before it becomes a crisis.
You need a break
Even one weekend away feels impossible to arrange. We'll help coordinate respite.
Family tension is rising
Caregiving is straining your marriage, siblings, or kids.
You don't know who to talk to
Friends mean well, but you need someone who actually understands dementia.
"It was nice to participate in a learning session with families going through the same thing as me. I want to affirm and uplift other caregivers like myself to keep a positive outlook and know that there is support out there. Thank you, HōttoCare, for making these sessions accessible."

Frequently asked.
Do I have to be in crisis to reach out?
+
Absolutely not. The earlier we connect, the more options you have.
What is the $2,500 respite benefit?
+
Eligible GUIDE families can access up to $2,500/year for in-home help, adult day programs, or short stays. Your navigator handles the paperwork.
Are peer groups in person or online?
+
Both. We offer virtual groups so you can join from anywhere, plus regional in-person meetups.
We can help guide you through it.
A short, no-pressure conversation with a HōttoCare navigator is often the most hopeful thing a caregiver does all month.
What our partners say about working with HōttoCare.
“HōttoCare has become a valuable partner for the families we serve. When a family caregiver is struggling with difficult dementia-related behaviors, we encourage them to reach out to their HōttoCare care navigator and review the care and medication plan. The HōttoCare team helps them think through what might be contributing to the behavior and provides practical support and guidance. When I check in with the family a few weeks later, there's often a noticeable sense of relief. The caregiver feels more supported, the behaviors have improved, and our staff can focus on providing care rather than managing crises. We've seen this happen with several clients recently, and it's made a meaningful difference for both the families and our team.”
