Our volunteer program has deep roots in mindfulness practice...Since the founding of Zen Caregiving Project in 1988, formerly known as Zen Hospice Project, our volunteer caregiving program has been the heart of the organization offering volunteer opportunities in palliative, hospice, and chronic care settings. We offer a variety of ways volunteers can become involved at Zen Caregiving Project, and we welcome you to consider how you can serve. Our volunteer program emphasizes a mindful, human-centered approach in which the spiritual and emotional needs of those we care for are primary. #FamilyCaregiver #CaregiverBurnout #Mindfulness #MindfulLiving #MentalHealthMatters

We'll all be and need a caregiver someday—let's start caring for them today. Together, we can build a community where caregivers feel empowered and valued for the incredible role they play in all our lives. #FamilyCaregiver #CaregiverBurnout #Mindfulness #MindfulLiving #MentalHealthMatters
