About the Event

Over 60 million people are living in the United States with a disability. For individuals with juvenile-onset conditions, as well as those with acquired disabilities across the lifespan family caregivers often provide some level of care and support. Recent reports estimate that over 53 million family caregivers provide care to a loved one (National Alliance for Caregiving, 2020). Due to increasing lifespans and other factors, the number of family caregivers is expected to increase. The recent pandemic has only exacerbated the challenges for care recipients and their family caregivers when considering the need for services, lack of providers, and service navigation challenges. In addition, compounding challenges and demands posed by the pandemic unveiled the complex realities associated with finding direct service providers and respite care for care recipients who are often at risk for being isolated and underserved. Family caregivers often face many challenges that may be compounding by their own aging, caring for multiple loved ones, and balancing their caregiving responsibilities with other roles (e.g., employment, family life). This training provides a current look a the state of family caregiving in the United States. An overview of the current realities of caregiving, caregiver outcomes, and policies and strategies to support caregivers will be discussed. Professionals working in all facets of health and human services will likely work with care recipients and caregivers in their career. This training will equip participants with the knowledge of trends and pragmatic strategies to support caregivers and care recipients in today's evolving world.
