For most people, their twenties and thirties are the busiest times of their life, a period of new careers, new friends, new cities, new families. What few count on is that they might also be called to additional responsibilities as caregivers of parents, grandparents, or other family members.

Rachael Piltch-Loeb was juggling a young family and a flourishing academic career when her father was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's. Her experience was the inspiration for The Millennial Caregiver, a heartfelt and practical guide for millennials balancing early adulthood with the demands of caregiving. The book explores challenges unique to the millennial generation

from emotional strain and financial pressures to social isolation and role reversal

and provides insightful strategies to manage these issues. It also highlights the role technology can play for digital natives in caregiving, offering tips for utilising digital tools and building support networks.

Millennials represent a large and growing portion of today's caregiving population. The Millennial Caregiver is a beacon of hope and a valuable resource for younger people navigating the complex terrain of caring for loved ones while forging their own path.
