Latino culture often prioritizes caregiving with family members providing direct care to aging parents.
It’s estimated that 75% of Latino caregivers are Latina, and likely to be in their early to mid-40s. An increasing 27% of Millennial family caregivers are Latino, and more than half are people of color.
Christina FitzPatrick, AARP New Hampshire State Director, spoke with Belen Dumont, New Hampshire Latino News Editor about the invisible work of family caregivers and the resources available to help them manage what can often be a very stressful situation.
