One of the most important and rewarding jobs a person could have is to be a caregiver. Yet, caregivers often feel alone and overwhelmed, especially those who take care of their parents, grandparents, spouses or siblings.
This is why the White House Conference on Aging has compiled a list of federal resources for caregivers from the following agencies:
- Administration for Community Living (ACL)
- Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
- Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)
- National Institutes of Health (NIH)
- HHS Office of Women’s Health (OWH)
- HHS Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion
- U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
- U.S. Department of Labor (DOL)
- Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
- Social Security Administration
- U.S. Department of Vetarns Affairs (VA)
