Join for a Town Hall presentation on the 2024 National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) report on Supporting Family Caregivers in STEMM: A Call to Action.

Family caregiving is not simply an outside obligation that has no bearing on the workings of academic science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM) as it affects the lives of so many people working and studying in colleges and universities around the country. This report reviews policies and practices that support caregivers, locally and nationally, and describes best practices in policy implementation and design. Supporting Family Caregivers in STEMM also highlights innovative practices and offers actionable recommendations to higher education institutions, public and private funders, and the federal government.

• Elena Fuentes-Afflick, MD, MPH
  Chief Scientific Officer
  Association of American Medical Colleges, National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM)
• Katie Wullert, PhD
