Caring for Tor- An intimate look at the life of a young caregiver
Stephane Alexis, 24, has put his own goals and aspirations on hold to help his parents care for his younger brother Torence, who has cerebral palsy. Young caregivers are an often-overlooked population - too tired from the day-to-day to advocate for more resources and support.
As a family with a loved one with disabilities, we like to bring awareness to the disability community and their caregivers.
This short, 8 minute documentary is raw, unfiltered reality of the life of Tor and his caregivers.
Recently, young caregivers are being recognized for their roles as caregivers in their families.
