annually  provide some level of care to a loved one  who is frail, chronically ill,
or disabled .
Over half on average provide care
21 hours a week or more.


Family caregivers are your neighbors, business  associates, employees, and
friends .
They can be found in every community ,
at every income level, and
among all races and creeds.


The market value of family caregivers' services has  been conservatively
estimated at more than  
$300 billion annually,  
more than twice     
what is spent on nursing homes and home care     
combined.          

Family Caregivers are the essential building block of  America's long-term
care system , providing more than  80% of all services. .
Ten percent of family caregivers have had to leave the   workforce to tend to
caregiving responsibilities  .
Caregiving families spend 2.5 times more on out of   pocket medical
expenses than families in which no one   is disabled.     
Despite all that family caregivers do for America,        
America does very little to                 
support family caregivers.
