Caring for Someone? We’re Here for You Too.

You Give a Lot

Your time, your energy, your patience. But this space is about you, too. We know what it’s like to be the one holding everything together.

Here, you’ll find support, rest, and people who get it.

Some days you hold it all with grace.

Some days you wonder if you can do it one more hour.

Whether you're caring for a parent, a partner, a child, or someone you barely knew before this — it's a lot.

At The Support Cafe, we’re not here to judge. We’re here to make sure you have someone checking on you for once. Come talk. Come rest. Come eat. Or just come sit. You matter here.

Local Reads for Caregivers

  • Lots of people in our area are caring for a parent, spouse, or child. Some live together. Some drive across town every day. Some are helping while raising kids of their own.

    Most of them feel invisible.

    We see you. The Cafe is a place where caregivers can breathe — where someone asks how you’re doing, not just how the person you’re caring for is doing.

    Stop in, or text CAREGIVER to (574) 203-8555. We’ll make space for you.

  • Finding support services in Fulton County can feel impossible — unless someone shows you where to look. There are options:

    • Medical equipment loans

    • Food and meal help

    • Home health or respite care

    • Medicaid waivers and case managers

    We can walk through them with you — no pressure. Just people helping people.

    Come by The Cafe. We’ll help you figure out what’s available, and what’s actually helpful.

  • You don’t get to clock out. You may not even get a full night of sleep. That kind of exhaustion wears on your body and your heart.

    Feeling fed up doesn’t make you selfish. It makes you human.

    At The Support Cafe, you can come in and sit down without having to explain yourself. We’ll listen if you want to talk. We’ll let you be quiet if you don’t.

    Text CAREGIVER to (574) 203-8555 or just show up. We’ve got coffee, a chair, and no expectations.

  • Hospice doesn’t mean you’re giving up. It doesn’t mean death is coming right away.

    It means you’re thinking ahead — and that’s brave.

    We can help you understand what hospice is, what it offers, and how it can help both you and your loved one. You don’t have to decide today, and you don’t have to do it alone.

    Come in and talk it through. We’ll sit beside you, not across from you.

  • This is one of the hardest things to talk about — but we need to.

    Sometimes we’re caring for someone who was not kind to us. Maybe they were abusive. Maybe they still are. But now they’re sick, or old, or can’t do for themselves. And it’s fallen on you.

    You’re not weak for feeling conflicted. You’re not bad for needing support.

    We’ll listen. Without judgment. Just come by or text CAREGIVER to (574) 203-8555. You shouldn’t have to carry this alone.
