It is common for family members to become the first and/or only source of support for older adults and adults living with disabilities. In fact, more than one in five people is a family caregiver for an adult, according to the National Alliance for Caregiving (NAC) and AARP. Most family caregivers provide:

• Help with bathing, grooming and dressing
• Food preparation and feeding
• Mobility assistance
• Financial aid and money management
• Transportation
• Grocery shopping
• Laundry and light housekeeping
• Medication management
• Mental health support
