Community support utilization by Black dementia caregivers: key factors
This study has significant policy implications, particularly in increasing funding for support programs. Black family caregivers of persons living with dementia (PLWD) could greatly benefit from enhanced federal and local initiatives. These programs should be specifically designed to address their unique needs and could include affordable, easily accessible, and culturally appropriate services such as respite care, counseling, and educational resources.
