<i>Cuidando A Otros</i> : middle-aged and older Latinx-White caregiver disparities in financial distress and health strain in California
Findings from this study underscore the need for targeted policies that alleviate the financial burden of caregiving for older Latinx adults, especially given their disproportionate exposure to economic precarity and high-intensity caregiving. While Latinx caregivers report lower caregiving-related health strain-potentially due to cultural resilience or social support-this should not obscure the structural disadvantages they face.
