Soon, one in every five North Carolinians will be at least 65 years old. Now is the time to make changes to improve the lives of the very young, the very old, and everyone in between. #AgeMyWayNC @AARPNC @Hometown_Strong @ncdhhs

This is a big step forward for families who caring for adult loved ones. AARP’s advocacy led to the creation of this strategy and we’ll keep fighting to make sure family caregivers get the support they need.
The National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers offers ~150 practical steps states/communities/the private sector can take to build a system that ensures family caregivers have what they need to maintain their health, well-being, & financial security. ACL.gov/CaregiverStrategy
