A new research brief is now available on the AGID (Aging Integrated Database) website.

Research Brief: Administration for Community Living Supports for Family Caregivers Across the Lifespan

This research brief serves as an introduction to the National Family Caregiver Support Program and related programs administered by ACL that provide support to caregivers of older adults, as well as caregivers of persons with disabilities.

In 2016, the National Family Caregiver Support Program provided support services to more than 212,000 individual caregivers. This included 61,989 caregivers who received respite services, as well as 120,100 individuals who received counseling. ACL also reached more than 20 million caregivers with their informational services.
