Generation Care

We've all heard of Boomers, Millennials, Gen X and Gen Z. But, there's a new, emerging generation that transcends age, race, income, geography and gender.

We call them Generation Care^™ – the everyday people taking on the extraordinary role of caring for a loved one living with a serious illness, whose healthcare requires ongoing support at home or between appointments. Caregiving is a universal aspect of life that, until now, has been largely feared, misunderstood and hidden. We believe it's time for that to change.

At Janssen, we're committed to showing the heart of the caregiver’s experience and providing the kind of support and information that will make a difference in caregivers' lives and for those who depend on them, every day.

We partnered with The Mighty, an online community for people facing health challenges and the people who care for them, to develop a caregiver toolkit. Click here to view the Mighty Toolkit and learn more about the ins and outs of caregiving and discover helpful resources you can utilize along your caregiving journey.

See below for additional resources for caregivers, including information on taking care of yourself, providing the best care for a loved one, navigating your career, legal and financial planning, and bringing help into the home.

Through a collaboration with T Brand Studio at the New York Times, we are elevating the critical role – and often untold stories – of today’s caregivers. Click here to read their stories and discover the full range of human emotion that goes into caregiving.

By supporting caregivers, even in the smallest of ways, we can help them provide better care to the loved ones who need them most. Learn more about how we're supporting both patients and caregivers below.

As you work through how to juggle your caregiving responsibilities, millions of other caregivers are feeling the same challenges.
