National Family Caregivers Month
November is National Family Caregivers Month, the time of year to recognize the hard work and dedication of family caregivers across our region and across the country. Celebrating family caregivers during this time enables all of us to raise awareness of family caregiver issues, celebrate the efforts of family caregivers, educate family caregivers about self-identification, and increase support for family caregivers. To all the family caregivers out there, we say: Thank you!
