Center for Caregiver Advancement

Caregivers Count: a project of the Center for Caregiver Advancement

"Caregivers Count" is CCA's public awareness campaign to change narratives about caregivers-undervalued essential workers who facilitate career growth for women that work outside the home.

"Caregivers Count" is a public awareness campaign that shifts the narrative about caregivers from non-essential, unskilled workers to skilled professionals who fill essential care gaps for older adults and people with disabilities. We're in a care crisis that leaves vulnerable people at risk, and women often abandon their careers in the workplace to serve as long-term caregivers. Training caregivers reduces this burden by bridging home care and clinical care, and supporting independence and better health.
