The National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP) just released the final component of the State Policy Roadmap for Family Caregivers. The goal of this publication is to provide a guide for state officials to better understand the state policy landscape for supporting family caregivers, and to identify opportunities for innovation in their states.

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) and partners from across the federal government jointly developed two new resources to help expand opportunities for competitive, integrated employment (CIE) for people with disabilities. CIE – jobs alongside coworkers with and without disabilities, in integrated settings in the community, at competitive wages, and with opportunities for advancement – is a critical part of community living. 

ACL has awarded three new grants under the Lifespan Respite Care Program for FY 2022. Lifespan respite care programs are coordinated state systems of accessible, community-based respite care services for family caregivers of people of all ages with special needs. Such programs reduce duplication of effort and assist in the development of respite care infrastructure at the state and local levels.
