Caregiving in Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias: Insights from Diverse Family Structures

The growing population of people living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) has increased the demand for informal care by family members and friends. While a growing number of studies about ADRD caregiving have engaged caregivers from diverse racial, ethnic, and/or sexual and gender minority backgrounds, more research is needed regarding the lived experiences of these populations of caregivers and the barriers and facilitators to supporting their well-being. This special collection aimed to understand better the impact and complex dynamics of caring for someone living with ADRD within diverse family structures.
