November and all year long we celebrate and honor the 65 million Americans who are caregivers. Just like Atlas, the weight of the world is being carried on caregivers’ shoulders. Caregiving crosses all socio-economic boundaries — race, religion, age, gender, geographic location, income level – caregiving is a role most if not all of us will play in our lifetimes.
