AI Summary
This legislation keeps the national “lifespan respite care” program going and updates who counts as a family caregiver. It changes the definition from “unpaid adult” to “unpaid individual,” which can open the door for more unpaid caregivers, including younger people, to be included in services and supports. It also extends funding for this program through fiscal years 2025 to 2030, helping these supports continue for several more years.
Key points
- Who is affected: Unpaid caregivers of any age, not just adults.
- What changes: The caregiver definition is broadened; program funding is continued.
- When: Funding covers fiscal years 2025 through 2030.
