COVID-19 and Caregiving Webinar
Wednesday, August 18, 2-3:30pm EDT
About one-third of older adults receive help with daily activities, mainly from family members and friends. During the COVID-19 pandemic, family caregivers may have faced unique consequences related to physical distancing orders. The webinar will focus on changes in caregiving networks to older adults as well as their wellbeing and experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. The webinar will feature speakers from the Michigan Center on the Demography of Aging (MiCDA)'s Demography of Family Caregiving Network. MiCDA is an interdisciplinary community of scholars from across the University of Michigan with a shared interest in the demography of aging. The Demography of Family Caregiving Network is a national network of scholars researching the implications of changes in the demography of families for caregiving and the wellbeing of older adults and their caregivers. MiCDA is funded by the National Institute on Aging.
