Researchers are inviting unpaid dementia caregivers to participate in a month-long study to evaluate a new mobile program to support caregiver well-being.

Eligible caregivers must spend at least eight hours per week caring for a family member or friend with dementia.

The study is completely offered online and requires the participant to be fluent/literate in English and own a phone that can receive text messages.

Caregivers will be asked to complete a few online questionnaires, be given access to web-based activities, and receive daily text messages for the duration of the study.

Enrollment is open until October 9, 2019, and caregivers will be compensated for their participation.
