New Research
Brief: ACL Supports for Family Caregivers Across the Lifespan
A new research brief is now available on the AGID (Aging Integrated Database) website.
This research brief serves as an introduction to the National
Family Caregiver Support Program and related programs administered by ACL
that provide support to caregivers of older adults, as well as caregivers
of persons with disabilities.
In 2016, the National Family Caregiver Support Program provided
support services to more than 212,000 individual caregivers. This included
61,989 caregivers who received respite services, as well as 120,100
individuals who received counseling. ACL also reached more than 20 million
caregivers with their informational services.
