Supporting Family Caregivers in STEMM National Symposium

Caregiving is a universal experience, whether providing care for children or aging relatives or receiving care when ailing, everyone at some point will be touched by caregiving. And yet, caregiving is stigmatized and under-supported in the US. Join us on November 20th for a symposium examining best practices and innovative solutions to improve support for family caregivers in academic STEMM. Building on the 2024 National Academies report on Supporting Family Caregivers in STEMM, presenters will share actionable steps they and others have taken for family caregivers and answer audience questions. This workshop is supported by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and in partnership with sites from the Doris Duke Fund to Retain Clinical Scientists.
