More than 10,000 copies have helped thousands of families navigate countless difficult conversations, making them a little easier.
At Family Shepherd, we believe no family should have to navigate the transition of a loved one into senior living alone.
That's why we're proud to celebrate that more than 10,000 copies of Paying for Long-Term Care, the Amazon bestselling book written by Family Shepherd co-founder Ben Rao, are now in the hands of families looking for trusted guidance during one of life's biggest transitions.
For many families, moving a parent or loved one into senior living brings more questions than answers:
• What are our care options?
• How do we pay for it?
• What resources are available?
• What do we do with Mom or Dad's home?
These are the questions our team helps families answer every day.

Beyond real estate, we connect families with trusted professionals and valuable resources throughout the Kansas City metro—all at no cost to the families we serve.
