November is National Family Caregiver’s Month
Help is Available – Pass it on!
Over a half million families in Washington State are caring for an adult who needs care or raising a relative’s child. This means the chances are you, or someone you know, are a family caregiver. This month as we honor and recognize family caregivers, we would like your help. We want these families to know they are not alone and help is available. Help us pass the word on. Here are some ideas.
Talk to knowledgeable and caring people. Learn how the Family Caregiver Support Program can help.
Watch and hear DSHS Secretary Susan Dreyfus honor our state’s family and kinship caregivers.
Get free publications to pass on to others or put in your office or business. Order a free family caregiver kit.
Learn about benefits and services for grandparents and relatives raising children.
For Professionals: Learn about the new caregiver assessment and planning process.
