- Restore funding to maintain the Virginia Caregivers Grant.
- Train and link family and informal caregivers to information and education about dementia and the caregiving process, including information about dementia as well as information on how caregivers can stay healthy, organize the various legal issues associated with a loved one’s dementia diagnosis, and how caregivers can locate and make use of resources for respite care services.
