Congressional Briefing on Family Caregiving in Diverse Communities: Addressing the Needs of Diverse Family Caregivers for Older Adults

 

December 8, 2021 | 1:00 - 2:30 PM ET

 

Chairman of the Committee on Education and Labor Bobby Scott will be speaking on his work to improve the lives of family caregivers, including his support of the Older Americans Act, the Build Back Better Act and the RAISE Family Caregivers Act.

 

Join the Diverse Elders Coalition and its members, in partnership with the National Alliance for Caregiving, as they discuss findings from their recently released report, Family Caregiving for Older Adults from Diverse Communities. The report highlights impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on family caregivers; related implications for older adults from diverse communities; and ways to strengthen recommendations from the recently released RAISE Family Caregivers Act Initial Report to Congress to better address the unmet needs of racially and ethnically diverse family caregivers.

 

This report and briefing are made possible through generous support from The John A. Hartford Foundation.
