X-WR-CALDESC:Family caregivers are the foundation of our nation’s system of
  long-term services and supports. Without the hard work and dedication of 
 family members and friends\, adults of all ages with long-term support nee
 ds would be unable to live in the settings of their choice and remain enga
 ged in their communities. \n\nToo often\, however\, family caregivers are 
 unseen\, unheard\, and unrecognized for the critical role they play in the
  lives of those for whom they provide care. Many times\, family caregivers
  are not included in critical care and support discussions when the respon
 sibility for such often falls on their shoulders. \n\nTo better support fa
 mily caregivers\, Congress passed the Recognize\, Assist\, Include\, Suppo
 rt\, and Engage (RAISE) Family Caregivers Act in 2018. The RAISE Act estab
 lished the Family Caregiving Advisory Council which is tasked with creatin
 g the country’s first national Family Caregiver Strategy to address many o
 f those issues and is helping to elevate the voices of family caregivers o
 n the national stage. During this interactive webinar\, participants will 
 hear about the Administration for Community Living’s efforts to implement 
 the requirements of the Act and provide an opportunity to discuss the role
  of adult day services programs as a key component of family caregiver sup
 port. \n\nObjectives of this webinar include:\n•	Provide participants with 
 an understanding of the RAISE Act and progress to date on the Administrati
