Caregiving Initiative

More than 1 in 8 Americans act as unpaid caregiver for someone aged 50 or older. In 2015, there were 844,000 reported informal caregivers in Massachusetts out of a total population of 6.7 million. Informal caregivers cross all generations -- Millennials, Generation X, Baby Boomers -- and many are now part of the “sandwich generation” caring for a younger child and older adult at the same time.

As part of the Mass Caregiver Initiative, MeHI promotes innovation and collaboration between digital health companies and aging and caregiving-focused provider organizations to address challenges related to the Commonwealth's growing aging population and those that care for them.
