We are heartbroken by the loss of our founder, former First Lady Rosalynn Carter. She was a lifelong champion for #caregivers and will remain an inspiration to us all. #ThankYouMrsCarter
We're laughing because Mrs. Carter was meant to give a brief welcome. She had no plans to stick to the script. She had real policy change to discuss, because she never missed an opportunity to fight for #caregivers. We carry on at @RCICaregiving in her honor. #ThankYouMrsCarter
Last week the @NA4Caregiving sent a message to congress: we're a caregiver nation, 53 million strong & we deserve action on our Nat'l Strategy to Support Family Caregivers & policies like #PaidLeaveForAll. Thank you to everyone who joined us for #CaregiverNation23! #ActOnRAISE
We're looking for disabled artists in the South! We are hosting our first annual gala in November, and we're looking to commission artists to design elements of the event, including centerpieces and more. Interested in learning more? Email us at [email protected].
The Carter family is sharing that former First Lady Rosalynn Carter has dementia. She continues to live happily at home with her husband, enjoying spring in Plains and visits with loved ones.

Music has always been at the heart of resistance.
We gathered at @sxsw and hosted the Politics Stage because we fundamentally believe culture shifts politics and not the other way around.
I am look for volunteers to help write letters to the @CMSGov asking them to reconsider the determinations for #Alzheimers and other #dementia studies to make them more equitable! My DMs are open – please contact me by March 25th!
