To extend the RAISE Family Caregivers Act.

Bill 118 hr 10512, also known as the RAISE Family Caregivers Act, is a piece of legislation that aims to extend the provisions of the original RAISE Family Caregivers Act. The original act was passed in 2017 and established an advisory council to make recommendations to the Secretary of Health and Human Services on how to support family caregivers.

The new bill seeks to extend the work of the advisory council for an additional three years. The council is tasked with developing and updating a national strategy to recognize and support family caregivers. This strategy includes identifying specific actions that government, communities, providers, employers, and others can take to support family caregivers.

The bill also requires the advisory council to submit a report to Congress and the Secretary of Health and Human Services on their progress and recommendations. This report must include an evaluation of the effectiveness of the national strategy and any barriers that family caregivers face in accessing support. Overall, the goal of Bill 118 hr 10512 is to continue the important work of supporting family caregivers and ensuring that they have the resources and assistance they need to care for their loved ones. By extending the RAISE Family Caregivers Act, Congress is demonstrating its commitment to recognizing and supporting the vital role that family caregivers play in our society.
