Abstract

Family caregivers are at risk of negative psychosocial outcomes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Following survey participation, self-identified caregivers will be interviewed. Study results will inform a deeper understanding of the caregiving role and provide a foundation for equitable, effective, and sustainable interventions promoting resilience and improving caregiver well-being.
