Family, friends, and neighbors caring for an older adult or person with dementia can access caregiver support across Minnesota. Supports include one-on-one caregiver consultants, support groups, training, education, respite, and help finding local services through Minnesota Aging Pathways. Minnesota law also authorizes the Minnesota Board on Aging to administer self-directed caregiver grants for at-risk family caregivers of older adults or others eligible under the Older Americans Act, and caregiver support programs may provide respite care within available funds.
