Caregiver Services and Supports
Innovations in Family Caregiver Services and Supports Initiative
Unpaid family caregivers provide a wide range of services, including transportation, food preparation, housekeeping and personal care. These and other services enable care recipients to remain living where they wish—at home and in the community— with dignity and independence.
With funding from the U.S. Administration for Community Living (ACL), USAging and its partners are working to expand and enhance the capacity of the Aging Network to strengthen and spur innovation in the development and implementation of person and family-centered services and supports that meet the diverse needs of the nation’s caregivers.
Caregiver Services and Supports Innovations Hub
The Innovations Hub is an online clearinghouse that facilitates the exchange of programs that aim to foster the development of innovative caregiver services and supports in the Aging Network.
Caregiver Champion Collaborative
The Caregiver Champion Collaborative serves as a learning and peer exchange forum for caregiving managers and staff across the Aging Network to get the latest information, resources and networking opportunities to participate in scaling up existing caregiving efforts.
This project is supported by the Administration for Community Living (ACL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of a financial award totaling $4,400,000 with 75 percentage funded by ACL/HHS and $1,476,288 amount and 25 percentage funded by non-government source(s).
