Supporting Hispanic Family Caregivers Facing Financial Strain in Dementia Care
Case Western Reserve University
Overview
Hispanic family caregivers of people living with dementia often experience significant financial strain alongside the emotional demands of caregiving. The CONFIDENCE program is a culturally tailored, bilingual intervention that helps caregivers navigate caregiving costs, employment challenges, financial planning, and community resources. Through education, peer support, and practical problem-solving, the program aims to reduce financial stress and improve caregivers’ overall well-being.
