Dear Caregiver and Friend of Care, You are warmly invited to enroll in CareCFA’s new course - Sacred Presents: Eight Spiritual Principles for Person-Centered Caregiving This engaging program draws directly from the lived disciplines of presence, covenant faithfulness, image-bearing dignity, whole-person attentiveness, shared compassion, mutuality, integrity, and justice-oriented advocacy. It is designed for family caregivers, professional caregivers, faith community leaders, and anyone who seeks to ground the daily work of care in deeper meaning and sustained strength. Through guided reflection, practical application, and conversation rooted in both the Picker Principles of Person-Centered Care and the spiritual wisdom of faithful presence, participants will learn how to transform ordinary caregiving tasks into a vocation of love—one that nourishes both the one who gives care and the one who receives it. The course offers: * Clear teaching on each of the eight spiritual principles * Tools for remaining present amid fatigue and uncertainty * Practices that honor dignity, continuity, and mutual support * A supportive community of fellow caregivers walking the same path Whether you care for a loved one at home, serve in a professional setting, or lead others in caregiving ministry, this course will equip and encourage you. Enrollment is now open through the Caregiver Coalition Fund of America (CareCFA). Join us. Bring your questions, your experience, and your heart. Together we will reclaim caregiving as sacred work—grounded, faithful, and full of hope.

This program aligns three complementary frameworks for family caregiving: eight evidence-based principles drawn from research and Ray Dalio’s concept of practical principles, eight spiritual principles rooted in person-centered care viewed through faith and vocation, and the three temporal periods of the caregiving journey—before, during, and after active care. The evidence-based principles restore measurable control amid constant demand by emphasizing self-assessment, self-care, skills training, problem-solving, support networks, collaboration, boundary-setting, and sustained multicomponent assistance. The spiritual principles orient the caregiver’s heart toward presence, covenant faithfulness, dignity, holistic stewardship, compassionate solidarity, mutuality, integrity, and justice. Mapped across the three periods, these frameworks convert caregiving from an unstructured ordeal into an intentional practice. Preparation becomes possible before the role begins, endurance is strengthened during active caregiving, and identity reconstruction is supported after the role ends—particularly in the disorienting “black hole” that often follows. The CareCFA Community on Skool operationalizes this integrated approach, offering peer support matched to each stage so that caregivers are accompanied throughout the full arc of the experience.
