The Caregiver Honor Roll
More than 40 million people in the United States are providing unpaid care for an aging parent, spouse, or other loved one -- care that often takes a substantial emotional, physical, and financial toll on family caregivers. At Caring.com, we honor these unsung heroes and seek to create an involved community that can face the many challenges of caregiving together.
With our Caregiver Honor Roll, we hope to shine some light on the people and stories behind the statistics -- providing a glimpse into both the unique and the shared experiences of family caregivers.
