Mark your calendars! Fun Run for Autism is happening Sunday, September 13 at Gold Bar Park, in support of Centre for Autism Services Alberta.

This isn't your typical race. Come as you are, in a costume, a cape, or your comfiest onesie. It's a celebration of individuality, movement, and community.

Walk it, run it, or cheer from the sidelines. Every step supports programs for Autistic individuals across the lifespan.

Being a caregiver means giving a lot of yourself, every single day. This is your reminder that rest is not a reward you have to earn, it's something you need.

Try setting aside even 10 minutes today for something that's just for you. It could be reading, stretching, or simply sitting in silence.

Your needs matter as much as the needs of those you care for. Find more self-care tips and tools on our blog at crossroadsfs.ca/blog

Summer can bring a lot of joy. It can also bring longer days, disrupted schedules, and a lot less built-in support.

If you're feeling stretched thin, that's not a sign you're doing something wrong. It's a sign you're doing a lot. Asking for help, whether from family, community, or a support service, is one of the strongest things a caregiver can do.

We are here when you are ready to talk. πŸ’™

International Self-Care Day is July 24th, and we want to offer something a little more substantial than a reminder to "take a break."

Caregiver wellbeing is built on five key pillars: physical rest, emotional space, social connection, practical support, and a sense of self outside of caregiving. When one of those areas is depleted, the whole system feels it.

Swipe through to see each pillar, and ask yourself honestly: which one needs the most attention right now?

We work alongside caregivers every day to help make sustainable support possible. That is what we are here for. πŸ’™
