Let Family Caregivers Know They Matter

NASW continues its support for National Family Caregivers Month this November. This year’s theme, Family Caregivers Matter, is particularly relevant to social workers, who understand not only the ways family caregivers enhance the well-being of their care partners, but also the crucial role family caregivers play in the health care system. Take some time to let family caregivers know they matter during National Family Caregivers Month 2012.
