Family Caregiver Support Act

The Family Caregiver Support Act is a law that provides resources and assistance to individuals caring for family members with health issues or disabilities. It aims to help caregivers by offering services such as counseling, training, respite care (short-term relief), and access to information. The goal is to support family caregivers in their important role, reduce their stress, and improve the quality of care for their loved ones. The Act encourages federal and state programs to recognize and address the needs of family caregivers, ensuring they receive the support necessary to maintain their well-being while caring for others.
