Homegrown Care: Turning Care into an LLC
A new course for caregivers, family members, and community organizers exploring how to legally and sustainably build caregiving businesses using LLCs.
America’s long-term care system is broken. Families are burning out. And recent cuts to Medicaid are about to make it impossible for families to provide culturally competent or loving care. But there’s another way.
This course shows caregivers how to form Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) and become eligible to:
Receive Medicaid payments for at-home care
Deduct equipment, mileage, and supply expenses
Qualify for tax breaks under new federal laws
Build multi-generational wealth through care
