November is Family Caregiver Month

This month we are joining with organizations across the country in celebrating family caregivers. There are more than 63 million family caregivers in the United States. Family caregivers are the backbone of our healthcare system. They provide billions of hours of unpaid care every year. Being a family caregiver is often a thankless job, but we have a message to all family caregivers:

Thank you! You are are doing a great job! The work you do caring for your loved one is so important, and we appreciate you.

If you are a family caregiver, we have resources available. Visit this page to find helpful resources for your caregiving journey.

You are not alone. We want to support you as you support your loved ones.

First Lady Rosalynn Carter said,

"There are only four kinds of people in the world: Those who have been caregivers, those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need a caregiver."

Family Caregiving is something that impacts all of us. Thank a family caregiver today!
