Support Caregivers

Together We Can Fight For You and Your Loved Ones

Across the country, AARP is working with governors, state legislators, and community partners to take commonsense steps to support America’s 40 million family caregivers — who help their older parents, spouses and other loved ones to live independently at home.

Share Your Story

AARP believes family caregivers like you aren’t celebrated or supported nearly enough. Thanks to you, older parents, spouses and other loved ones can live independently in their homes and communities. Sharing your story can make a difference. Speak out and help us fight for more support for family caregivers in your state. Your story will help us continue to fight for more support, help at home, workplace flexibility, training and relief in your state — and more.

Portraits of Care

AARP believes family caregivers aren’t celebrated nearly enough, so we created Portraits of Care to showcase and celebrate the invaluable contributions they make every day.
