Plan, participate, and stay close.
Use First Then Next with people you care about—whether coordinating family life, planning with friends, or participating in someone’s trusted circle. Join Communities and Teams, add events, share updates and encouragement, and stay connected from any location.
Plan together as peers
Coordinate visits, activities, routines, and shared plans in one clear visual place.
Join a trusted circle
Receive an invitation, see permitted information, and participate in ways that respect privacy.
Share connection
Add photos, notes, updates, and encouragement from wherever you are.
Being part of the circle should feel easy—not intrusive.
Friends and relatives often want to help but may not know the plan, the right moment to reach out, or what information is appropriate to share. First Then Next® offers a respectful way to participate from near or far.
Know how to show up
See the permitted schedule, activity details, people, and places that help you understand where support or companionship may be useful.
Share encouragement and connection
Add permitted notes, photos, videos, updates, and positive moments so distance does not have to mean disconnection.
Respect privacy and choice
Join only by invitation, see only what is appropriate for your role, and keep the member’s preferences at the center.
