Beyond the CCC Plus Waiver, family caregivers may benefit from the National Family Caregiver Support Program, veteran caregiver benefits, and local Area Agency on Aging resources. Each offers different help — from paid caregiving to respite and counseling.

Note that Social Security does not pay family caregivers directly; the real pay programs run through Medicaid and the VA. We can help you find the right combination for your situation.
