About us
If you support someone in need and feel anxious and overwhelmed with your caregiving responsibilities, you’re not alone. The Ontario Caregiver Organization (OCO) exists to support Ontario’s 4 million caregivers; ordinary people who provide physical and emotional support to a family member, partner, friend or neighbour. We support caregivers by being their one point of access to information, so they have what they need to be successful in their role. Working collectively with caregivers, healthcare providers and other organizations, OCO draws on the variety of work that is currently being done to ease caregiver burn-out and improve the caregiving experience. We find ways to make existing services more broadly available so all caregivers, regardless of age, disease, diagnosis or location can access support. Where there are gaps, we work with caregivers and like-minded partners to find new and creative ways to fill them. The Ontario Caregiver Organization is inspired by caregivers, their stories and their unique experiences, and uses the caregiver voice to inform our work. Established in the Spring of 2018, the OCO is an independent non-profit that is funded by the Ministry of Health.

“I Don’t Know How to Change Things” Sounds familiar? Today our SCALE webinar takes on a new topic that we've been hearing about from caregivers for some time: the profound grief and sense of helplessness that many caregivers experience in their relationships. Caregiving can often lead to feelings of disconnection and loss, leaving you frustrated and disappointed. But you’re not alone! Our webinar will equip you with essential skills to refocus these relationships and rediscover fulfillment. Don’t miss this opportunity to navigate your caregiving journey with renewed hope and purpose! There's still time to register: https://bit.ly/4fnuKFm
