The
2025 edition of Caregiving in the US
, released by AARP and the National
Alliance for Caregiving, reveals a
rapidly evolving caregiving landscape
that now includes 63 million Americans,
a nearly 50% increase since 2015. This
surge underscores the growing demand for
family caregivers who provide essential
support to those with chronic,
disabling, or serious health conditions.
The report outlines key policy areas,
such as financial support, workplace
protections, and access to services,
offering a roadmap to build a more
supportive system for family caregivers,
who form the backbone of long-term care
in the US.
