As National Family Caregivers Month approaches in November, this webinar will explore how caregiving intersects with workforce participation and what employers, policymakers, and HR leaders can do to help caregivers remain connected to work. Through perspectives from federal or state policy leaders and employer partners, the conversation will examine the intersection of caregiving and disability, emerging public policy approaches, and practical workplace strategies that support caregivers while meeting organizational needs.
Learning Objectives:
