Handling Challenges of Being a Rare Caregiver and Parent: Courageous Parents Network Webinar

Do you want to work? Do you have to work? How do you balance caregiving and work?

Global Genes’ own Daniel DeFabio, Senior Director of Community Engagement, joined rare disease parents for a webinar with Courageous Parents Network on how parents of children diagnosed with a rare disease handle multiple responsibilities as caregivers, as well as their emotional needs. They discuss choosing not to work outside the home, feeling there is no choice, and trying to find a work life and caregiver life balance.
