The National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP) is pleased to announce a renewed three-year initiative to continue work supporting the Recognize, Assist, Include, Support and Engage (RAISE) Act Family Caregiving Advisory Council. This Council released the nation’s first whole-of-society National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers in 2022. In collaboration with the U.S. Administration for Community Living, The John A. Hartford Foundation has funded NASHP’s RAISE Act Family Caregiver Resource and Dissemination Center to support this national strategy. 

This new project will continue support of NASHP’s RAISE Center and the National Strategy in three areas: 

• Engaging states and other organizations to drive action and implementation of the strategy’s recommendations 

• Supporting the update of the strategy by building partnerships and leveraging the lived experiences of family caregivers 
• Implementing a comprehensive dissemination and communications strategy to serve as a national resource for policymakers and others to improve family caregiver policies  

More information and state resources on family caregiving can be found at The RAISE Act Family Caregiver Resource and Dissemination Center.
