We built the system, we wish we'd had.

No one should start from zero.

Caregiving so often rests on one person. When that person cannot be there, for an afternoon, a hospital stay, or something harder, the care should never fall apart with them.

Hearth & Village holds everything the primary caregiver carries. So when someone else steps in, a sibling, an adult child, a trusted friend, they pick up exactly where things were left off. With the full picture, not a scramble of guesswork.

To us, this was never a feature. It is the whole point.

Who we are

Hearth & Village is built by BHD Collective, the design studio David and I have run together for twenty years. I am Janice Connolly, an Air Force veteran, 100 percent permanently and totally disabled, and a UX designer for two decades. David is my partner in this and in life. We did not build this from the outside looking in. We are a family that has lived it.

Be the change you want to see.

Dignity first, never surveillance. Faith and family are the center here, not afterthoughts. And the caregiver, the one everyone leans on, finally gets to feel held too.
