The National Day of Joy is June 25, 2025

#CKHeartofCaregiving #NationalDayofJoy #ComfortKeepers

Founded by Comfort Keepers®. Made for Everyone.

We created the National Day of Joy in 2019 because our decades of helping seniors with our unique brand of uplifting in-home care shows us that a daily dose of joy can truly work wonders. No matter how old you are, finding joy in even the simplest everyday moments is scientifically proven to help improve and maintain overall wellness, including physical and mental health. That's worth celebrating, right? We thought so.

So, to make sure everyone has at least one day a year devoted to experiencing and sharing joy, we registered the last Wednesday in June each year as The National Day of Joy with the National Day Archives. Please plan to join us each year by doing your part to bring more joy into the world.

The Heart of Caregiving

This year, Comfort Keepers is deepening its commitment to honoring caregivers by connecting the joy of caregiving with the emotional impact of care through new national survey findings and hosting screening events of the upcoming PBS documentary, Caregiving.

The National Day of Joy was created to remind people of all ages to find joy in everyday moments to support physical, mental, and emotional well-being. At the heart of this year's celebration is a powerful message: caregiving, while challenging, can be one of life's most joyful and meaningful experiences.


National Day of Joy Survey

This year's National Day of Joy survey*, highlights that while caregiving comes with challenges, most caregivers call it a blessing and an opportunity to uncover life's silver linings such as connecting with their loved one, learning family stories, finding purpose and feeling joy.The survey shows that when people care for aging loved ones, they are giving support, but they are also getting something back, deep emotional rewards, personal growth, and stronger bonds with older loved ones.”

*The survey was conducted by Talker Research on behalf of Comfort Keepers from April 25-May 1 and polled 2,000 Americans (1,000 general population adults and 1,000 caregivers who've provided care to seniors)
