Resources

When Barbara first began caregiving, she eagerly looked for resources to help guide her through the process. Unfortunately, there wasn't much out there. After her ten years of caregiving was over, she began her own research which eventually became the foundation for Stuck in the Middle.

Barbara is happy to share with you some of the books, websites, and organizations that have provided her with information, advice, and support. Do you have a resource that you've found particularly helpful but don't see listed on this website? Contact Barbara and let her know!
