Florida Politics Highlights National Caregiving Youth Week and Bipartisan Resolution

Florida Politics included National Caregiving Youth Week in its November 18, 2025, publication (Staff Reports), noting the bipartisan resolution introduced by Representatives Lois Frankel and María Elvira Salazar.
The article outlines the importance of recognizing the more than 6 million Caregiving Youth in the United States who provide support at home while managing school responsibilities. It also features comments from Dr. Connie Siskowski on why formal support and greater understanding are needed for these students.

Coverage in a statewide political outlet helps increase visibility of Caregiving Youth in Florida and nationally.

For Florida residents, this is a timely moment to contact your state representative about the importance of supporting Caregiving Youth. Pending legislation would benefit the more than 290,000 students in Florida who balance schooling, daily life, and caregiving at home.
