Young Caregivers

Young caregivers are children and teenagers who provide care and support to family members with health issues, disabilities, or aging-related needs. Their responsibilities can include helping with daily activities like cooking, bathing, or managing medications. While their role can foster maturity and empathy, it may also impact their education, social life, and emotional well-being. Recognizing young caregivers is important to ensure they receive the support and resources needed to balance their caregiving duties with their personal development.
