The Caregiver's Journal hosted by Lance A. Slatton with Cindy (PT) & Christina (ST) Hardin-Weiss.

The Caregiver's Journal is the show where we are sharing the caregiving experiences, stories, and wisdom of family caregivers.

Chapter 4 - "Navigating Care":

In this journal entry, we welcomed Lisa Nigro who shared her caregiving journey and how she is "Navigating Care".

About Lisa Nigro:

Lisa Nigro has always served marginalized communities, beginning with her work in the Chicago Police Department and continuing with her work in founding the Inspiration Corporation, which has served the homeless community of Chicago for the last 30 years. Currently, she is a full-time caregiver to her son, who suffered a brain injury in 2015, leading her to advocate for the disabled community.

In 2010, Lisa was awarded the Presidential Citizens Medal for her ongoing community work and has been featured in magazines such as People, Mirabella, and, most recently, Parade.

She has proven that one person can lead the way to making a difference in the lives of others.
