A resolution recognizing November 2023 as "National Family Caregivers Month".

This resolution (SRES 480) recognizes November 2023 as "National Family Caregivers Month" to honor the approximately 53 million family caregivers in the U.S. who provide unpaid care to loved ones with chronic illnesses, disabilities, or age-related needs. It commends these caregivers, who often face financial and emotional challenges, and encourages federal agencies, states, and private organizations to implement the 2022 National Strategy for Supporting Family Caregivers. The resolution specifically urges investment in existing support measures like tax credits, paid leave, respite care, home-based services, and healthcare access. As a symbolic gesture, it does not create new laws or funding but aims to raise awareness and promote existing caregiver support policies.
