Caring is a deeply rewarding yet exhausting responsibility

Family caregiver needs time to recharge, but:

  • Professional care is expensive
  • Volunteer-based programs are limited

That’s where Respite Cooperative comes in. Our peer-to-peer respite exchange empowers caregivers to support one another.

How

Caregiver POD

Connect with fellow caregivers who share similar needs. By establishing a caregiver pod, you create a support network that helps fill the gaps where professional care may not be available or affordable. Your pod becomes a community-driven solution because no one should have to do it alone.

How

Respite Reciprocity

Offer a socially comfortable way for caregivers to support one another—without the fear of rejection or feeling like a burden. Instead of direct asks, pod members simply post both respite requests and offers, allowing everyone to choose what works best for them.

How

Pay It Forward

Automate respite hours tracking and go beyond a simple one-to-one exchange. Pay it forward by providing respite to other pod members. This flexible model ensures that everyone contributes and benefits, creating a sustainable and thriving cooperative.
