Demand Financial Relief for Caregivers!

Family caregivers for older adults serve as an invisible, unpaid workforce in Michigan’s health care system, providing an estimated 1.1 billion hours of voluntary care to their loved ones worth approximately $19.6 billion per year in the aggregate.

They also typically spend significant portions of their own income in support of their caregiving activities, paying for expenses like home modifications, care at home, transportation, and equipment to help with daily living. More than three in four family caregivers (78%) incur out-of-pocket expenses for caregiving purposes.

Tell your state legislators to support the Caring for MI Family Tax Credit to provide tax relief for family caregivers today!

Help family caregivers by demanding that the Michigan Legislature pass the Caring for MI Family Tax Credit to provide tax relief for family caregivers. Commit to turn up the heat on your lawmakers — and pledge to fight for family caregivers.
