Summary

This resolution officially designates November 2025 as "National Family Caregivers Month" , aiming to recognize and appreciate the significant contributions of the estimated 63 million family caregivers across the United States. These caregivers provide essential, unpaid support, valued at approximately $600 billion annually, to individuals with chronic illnesses, disabilities, and the aging population. The resolution highlights the substantial challenges faced by caregivers, including financial strain and emotional exhaustion, noting their growing numbers due to demographic shifts and care shortages. It encourages Federal agencies, States, and the private sector to implement the 2022 National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers and to develop person- and family-centered policies. Furthermore, the resolution urges investment in crucial support mechanisms for caregivers, such as economic tax credits, paid family and medical leave, respite care, and access to quality health care , while also encouraging all Americans to learn more about and support those providing care.
