American Association of Caregiving Youth

We champion youth who care for chronically ill, injured, elderly, or disabled family members, support their role as caregivers, safeguard, and celebrate their success in school and life.

As AACY awareness and reach increases through its affiliates and partnerships, there is a growing need to help scale its impact on this under-served population through an expanded network of supporters and advisers. As opportunities materialize in the areas of education, awareness, research and/or services the ability to have a group of supporters and experts that can provide additional feedback and perspective will enable AACY to continue to deliver robust high value services. To do this, AACY is establishing a more formal network of advisers that can bring additional expertise, perspective, robust guidance on the development and execution of innovative resources targeted to support the population served by the AACY.
