Your Turn to Care
The multi-platform series Your Turn to Care explores the challenges of, and offers solutions for, those caring for ailing or aging loved ones. Four half-hour episodes focus on the inspiring stories of families at important junctures in their caregiving journeys - from initiating the difficult discussion about health directives and wills, to navigating the complex and expensive world of assisted living facilities to transitioning into the "final chapter" of palliative care, hospice and letting go. Actress and award-winning author Holly Robinson Peete guides viewers into this often emotional and heart-wrenching passage of life, while sharing her own deeply personal caregiving experiences. The companion website, mobile application and social media components expands the series' content to offer additional resources and support, including opportunities for caregivers to connect to each other and to experts featured in the series.
