Bill overview
The Respite CARE Act amends the Older Americans Act to create and expand integrated caregiver support services. It allows grants to be awarded to eligible entities – such as state and local governments, nonprofits, and area agencies on aging – to provide respite care alongside other supportive services for family caregivers and those with Alzheimer's disease or related disorders. The bill aims to improve access to care for both caregivers and those they support, particularly through accessible formats and language services.
