Across the world, millions of people quietly care for an ill, elderly, or disabled family member without pay, recognition, or formal support. The Invisible Caregiver examines who these caregivers are, what they do, and why their contribution matters to families, communities, and society at large. Written with the assistance of artificial intelligence, this book draws together information on the scale of unpaid caregiving, its economic value, and its effects on the people who provide it. As you read, you will find an accessible overview of the personal, financial, and social dimensions of a role that affects almost every family at some point. The book does not offer easy answers, but it does offer a clearer picture of a reality that is often overlooked.
