Henri Nouwen has something unique and essential to offer to all caregivers. Through our books, videos and webinars we offer practical and spiritual encouragement to both professional caregivers and to all those who find themselves faced with caring for a sick, aging, or incapacitated loved one at home.
Our hope is to provide inspiration for professionals and family members to be transformed by Henri’s unique perspective on caregiving which could impact thousands of people.
