Supporting Family Caregivers: New Data, New Resources
Join the U-M Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation's National Poll on Healthy Aging and the Michigan Health Endowment Fund for a webinar exploring the experiences, needs, and challenges of Michigan's caregivers.
We'll hear from U-M experts about recent poll findings from caregivers in the U.S. and Michigan, including insights on:
- The health and financial impacts of caregiving
- Caregivers' awareness and use of available support resources
- Beliefs about the government's role in paying for caregiving
We'll also be joined by leaders from the Area Agencies on Aging Association of Michigan and AgeWays Nonprofit Senior Services, who will reflect on the poll findings and share solutions their organizations have built to better connect caregivers with the support they need.
