Both meetings will be held on August 28 - 29 at the Holiday Inn-Washington Capitol, located at 550 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20024.  The meetings will be open to the public (registration required) and will be live streamed.

"The number of family caregivers, including grandparents who are raising grandchildren, is significant and growing. They are the backbone of our country's caregiving system, and supporting them is critical," said ACL Administrator Lance Robertson. "ACL is proud to lead the implementation of the RAISE Family Caregivers Act and the Supporting Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Act. We are excited to announce the membership of the two advisory councils, and we are looking forward to the inaugural meetings."

The RAISE Family Caregiving Advisory Council<http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbXNpZD0mYXVpZD0mbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTkwODA3Ljg4OTM1MzEmbWVzc2FnZWlkPU1EQi1QUkQtQlVMLTIwMTkwODA3Ljg4OTM1MzEmZGF0YWJhc2VpZD0xMDAxJnNlcmlhbD0xNzEyODI5NCZlbWFpbGlkPXJ0cm91dG1hbkBuYWNkZC5vcmcmdXNlcmlkPXJ0cm91dG1hbkBuYWNkZC5vcmcmdGFyZ2V0aWQ9JmZsPSZleHRyYT1NdWx0aXZhcmlhdGVJZD0mJiY=&&&104&&&http://acl.gov/RAISE> is charged with providing recommendations on effective models of family caregiving and support to family caregivers, as well as improving coordination across federal government programs. These recommendations will support the development and execution of a national family caregiving strategy.

Each council is composed of members of the public selected based on demonstrated knowledge, qualifications, and professional or personal experience with the issues each council will address. In addition, each includes representatives from federal organizations that play a role in these issues.
