Today Anne and Rosanne are joined by Karen Kavanaugh senior director, Strategic Initiatives at the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers. She leads the development and launch of the institute’s initiatives designed to expand supports to strengthen caregiver health, resilience, and wellbeing. Her portfolio includes Working While Caring, and initiatives designed to deepen the research on effective workplace supports for caregivers and to expand access to those supports. She is also leading RCI’s caregiving typology and bereavement initiatives. We discuss the challenges that affect caregiving employees, employer viewpoints and ideas and policy changes that can help.
