CareSeason: Transforming Caregiver Narratives Into Marketable Career Pathways
CareSeason is a web-based app that transforms caregiving into professional credentials, by honoring lived experiences, reducing burnout, and creating pathways for workforce reentry and employment.
Caregiving is essential yet largely invisible labor, leaving caregivers burned out, underpaid, and disconnected from economic opportunity. Existing resources miss the mark, overwhelming caregivers instead of meeting their specific needs. CareSeason closes this gap through a web-app empowered by adult educators, or Pathway Connectors, who coach caregivers toward professional resilience. By translating "messy" care work into employer-valued skills, CareSeason personalizes resources, streamlines career pathways, and strengthens a high-demand rural workforce pipeline across Texas.
