“If you don't take care of yourself, who's gonna take care of your loved one when you can't?”

After 25 years of caring for his wife, Del Larsen knows firsthand why caregiver health and well-being matter. While navigating his own health challenges, Del sought out training, resources and information to better support his wife. He also came to recognize the importance of caring for himself.

His message speaks to something we cannot overlook: caregivers have needs of their own, and supporting their well-being is essential to sustaining care.

Through our rural caregiver storytelling series with Lutheran Services in America, we're bringing these experiences into a broader conversation about what families need to thrive.

Join us tomorrow, November 10, for Rooted in Care: From Rural Caregiver Voices to Action, featuring rural caregiver perspectives and national leaders working to strengthen support.

Planning helps. But families cannot plan their way out of a broken system.

This National Family Caregivers Month, we're honoring the time and labor family caregivers give every day and shining a light on what that care can cost them.

We are excited to share new findings from Ripple Effects: Planning, Preparation, and Financial Well-Being Across Caregiving Families, drawn from CGUS 2025 data, show:

📊 Only 43% of adult care recipients have a plan in place for their future care
📊 28% of caregivers report multiple financial impacts when the person they care for has a plan, compared with 46% when there isn't one
📊 Serious financial strain is about half as common when a plan exists: 12% compared with 25%
📊 Paid family leave is available to 35% of hourly workers and 60% of salaried workers

Even the best plan can't fix what's driving the cost: long-term care that families are expected to fund on their own.

This month, real relief takes all of us:
👉 Families: start the planning conversation earlier
👉 Employers: provide meaningful support
👉 Policymakers: strengthen how America supports and finances long-term care

Thank you to our partner Genworth | CareScout for your continued support of family caregivers.

Hear directly from rural family caregivers and national leaders as we explore their experiences, the challenges they face and ways to strengthen support in rural communities.

Caregiving touches nearly every part of our lives: our families, our workplaces, our healthcare system and our communities. 💙

And behind that care are millions of people showing up every day for someone they love.

If you're a family caregiver, we want you to know: We see you.

We see the time, energy and love you give. We also recognize the challenges you face and the support you deserve.

This year's theme, Care Connects Us: Because We See You, is about making sure caregivers are not only recognized, but heard, valued and supported.

Throughout November, we'll be sharing caregiver stories, resources and ways to turn awareness into action. Because recognition matters, but it should also lead to meaningful support and stronger policies.

Whether you're caring for someone today, have cared for someone in the past or know someone who does, you're part of this conversation.

💬 What do you wish more people understood about family caregiving?

Caregiving is a reality that nearly all of us will experience at some point in our lives.

For Melissa Reed, Head of Human Resources Healthcare Marketing & North America at EMD Serono, that moment came when her mother-in-law was diagnosed with lung cancer. From managing appointments and insurance to navigating treatment and family dynamics, she was able to put her family first thanks to the flexibility and support her employer provided.

At EMD Serono, that approach begins with listening to employees, employee resource groups, and caregiver communities through the Embracing Carers initiative. It has helped shape benefits and policies, including their parent company's global paid caregiver leave benefit.

When employers treat caregiving as part of the human experience, people don't have to choose between work, wellbeing, and the people they love.

Melissa is one of the voices featured in , a National Alliance for Caregiving campaign showcasing how employers can better support the caregivers on their teams. Thank you, Melissa and EMD Serono, for sharing your story. 🔗 Learn more athttps://www.caregiving.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/[email protected]

We’re proud to contribute to the Milken Institute Future of Aging and Longevity’s new publication, The Future of Aging and Longevity: A Decade of Progress, A Decade to Act.

Our President and CEO Jason Resendez joined Feylyn Lewis, PhD, of Vanderbilt University School of Nursing, to call attention to an often-overlooked group of caregivers: student caregivers.

More than 5 million family caregivers are enrolled in postsecondary education, yet colleges and universities have been slow to recognize and support this growing community of learners. Supporting student caregivers means creating learning environments that recognize the realities of caregiving and help students succeed both in school and in their lives beyond the classroom.

Ten years ago, the Milken Institute published a collection of essays imagining what longer lives could make possible and calling on leaders to prepare for an aging population. A decade later, the case for action has only grown more urgent.

Congratulations to the Milken Institute team on this milestone collection, which brings together 22 intergenerational essays, 8 practitioner spotlights, and more than 50 voices to reflect on the progress of the past decade and what the next decade demands.
