New Data Profile: Caring for Individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease or Related Dementias (ADRD)

July 2, 2019

ACL has released a data profile using data from the Caregiver Outcome Evaluation Study of the National Family Caregiver Support Program (NFCSP). This data profile, “Caring for Individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease or Related Dementias (ADRD),” compares caregivers who have a care recipient with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias (ADRD) to caregivers who have a care recipient without ADRD. This data profile examines characteristics of caregivers including age, gender, relationship to care recipient, sources of caregiving support, and use of NFCSP services.

Download the new profile.

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) conducted an outcome evaluation of the Older Americans Act Title III-E National Family Caregiver Support Program (NFCSP).The NFCSP provides grants to states and territories to fund various supports that help family and informal caregivers care for older adults in their homes for as long as possible. The Caregiver Outcome Evaluation Study of the NFCSP was released in 2018.
