Final Report of the APA 2010 Presidential Task Force on Caregivers
In the spring of 2009, Dr. Goodheart convened the APA Presidential Task Force on Caregivers. Task Force members are: Andrea Farkas Patenaude, PhD, Chair (Harvard Medical School and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute), Martha Crowther, PhD, MPH (University of Alabama), Timothy Elliott, PhD, ABPP (Texas A&M University), William Haley, PhD (University of South Florida), Barry J. Jacobs, PsyD, (Crozer Keystone Health System, PA), and Sara Honn Qualls, PhD (University of Colorado, Colorado Springs). The expertise of the group included aging, disability, cultural diversity and pediatric illness in relation to caregiving and experience in research, clinical and community practice, and teaching about caregiving in a variety of settings.
The Task Force held biweekly conference calls, one face-to-face three-day meeting in April 2010, and a lunch meeting at the 2010 convention. The Task Force determined in early discussions that its principal product would be an online “Family Caregiver Briefcase for Psychologists.” The Briefcase is an appealing, instructive, but not inclusive resource to raise awareness of the range of issues encountered by family caregivers and the important roles psychologists can and do play in their work with them. The Briefcase will allow psychologists easy access to clinical assessment and intervention tools appropriate for use with diverse groups of caregivers, to key research articles about caregiving to stimulate thinking about future projects, and to resources which can be useful to practitioners, researchers, educators and policy advocates.
Given the breadth of its project, APA boards, committees, divisions and ethnic minority psychological associations were asked to appoint liaisons to the Presidential Task Force. Liaisons from 31 divisions, 21 boards and committees and one ethnic minority psychological association provided input to the Task Force to assure that the needs and resources of their constituent groups were addressed within the Briefcase. A list of those individuals is presented as Appendix A.
In addition, to encourage the involvement of the APA membership more broadly, Dr. Goodheart met with the 2010 Convention Program Chairs in August 2009 to inform them that caregiving would be a central theme of the 2010 convention and to invite divisions to participate in the Presidential Initiative by offering programs on caregiving that would highlight the contributions of their division to caregiver programs, service and research.
The Task Force wrote and edited most of the Briefcase text, after reviewing the literature from which they selected assessment measures, interventions, references and resources to be included in the Briefcase. Suggestions from the liaisons were also integrated into the Briefcase.
| APA reports synthesize current psychological knowledge in a given area and may offer recommendations for future action. They do not constitute APA policy nor commit APA to the activities described therein. This particular report originated with the Presidential Task Force on Caregivers. |
Additionally, the Task Force, aided by Deborah DiGilio, suggested ways to publicize the Briefcase and encourage broad dissemination and continued attention to this important issue by the association. It was also decided that the Task Force would submit a proposal for a 2011 APA Continuing Education Convention Workshop titled “Practice Opportunities for Working with Family Caregivers” and develop a Resolution on Caregiving which we will be placed upon the spring 2011 Cross Cutting Agenda. Details of the efforts of the Task Force follow.
The Task Force’s principal product is the online Family Caregiver Briefcase for Psychologists, which will be available on the APA website at the beginning of 2011. Containing over 120 information-filled web pages, references and links, The Briefcase represents a significant opportunity for psychologists to consider how they might utilize their skill and experience with families to assist family caregivers through individual and organizational practice, research, teaching and community service.

APA 2010 Convention
Caregiving was a central theme of the APA 2010 Convention. Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter received an APA Presidential Citation for her more than four decades of enduring effort to improve the quality of life and mental health services for people both in the United States and around the world, and for her commitment to addressing the needs and supporting the significant contributions of caregivers.
The Task Force presented a Presidential Symposium, “Serving Family Caregivers in your Community: Opportunities, Roles, and Resources for Psychologists.” The symposium was very well attended with CEUs offered to attendees. The Task Force was also successful in advocating for in inclusion of the term, “Caregiving” in the APA subject index for Convention and CE proposals and for searching the online Convention program.
APA Divisions sponsored 22 symposia and poster sessions in support of this Initiative. The programs focused on diverse aspects of psychological research, education, intervention, interdisciplinary collaboration, and policy formulation that contribute to the well-being of family caregivers across the life span. The symposia were:

APA Resolution on Caregiving
The Task Force is currently developing an APA Resolution on Caregiving. The proposed Resolution will describe the role of family caregivers in contemporary society, bring attention to this important issue, and convey and affirm that psychological research and practice are critical to the health and well-being of caregivers and care recipients. It will outline the empirical support for assessment and interventions to address the mental and behavioral health of caregivers and associated outcomes such as improved quality of life, enhanced physical health, improved quality of relationships with family and friends, and reduced burden on family caregivers. It will also highlight the efforts of psychologists and APA and describe how psychologists utilize their skill and experience with families to assist family caregivers through individual and organizational practice, research, teaching and community service. Recommendations for future action addressing practice, research, education and training, and public policy issues will also be delineated. It is planned that the draft resolution will be on the spring 2011 Cross Cutting agenda.
Promotion and Dissemination
Although the web will be the primary dissemination mechanism, flyers and bookmarks have been developed announcing the launch of the online Family Caregiver Briefcase for Psychologists. Thus far bookmarks have been distributed to all attendees of the 2010 APA Convention and the flyers have been distributed to State, Provincial, and Territorial Psychological Associations. They will continue to be distributed broadly both throughout the APA membership - at state and regional Psychological Association meetings, to Divisions at the Division Leadership Conference and to members of Governance at Council of Representatives and Consolidated Meetings. In addition outreach will be conducted to key external groups including health and human service professionals, family caregiver organizations and their constituents, government and other agencies, and policy makers.
All of the above groups and the large number of organizations included in the briefcase will be asked to link from their websites to the Briefcase and to distribute the promotional materials to their constituent groups.
Targeted action will be taken to link this useful APA resource to efforts related to the recent declaration of 2011 as “The National Year of the Family Caregiver” by the U.S. Administration on Aging.
The Task Force expresses appreciation to Dr. Goodheart for her vision for creating something of practical value to APA members, and her support in maximizing the benefit of the Briefcase by making it highly visible within APA. We also thank Debbie DiGilio for her outstanding, unwavering guidance toward completion of what often felt like a daunting task.
We anticipate that the core of this Briefcase can serve members for years to come, with small changes as the field produces new approaches, new research findings, and new tools and resources. We dedicate this effort to the millions of family members who carry a magnificent load of responsibility and care on a daily basis.
The members of the APA Presidential Task Force on Caregivers are indebted to the following individuals for their contributions to the Initiative:
APA President Carol Goodheart, EdD for her selection of Family Caregiving as one of her Presidential Initiatives and for the very personal and informed guidance and support she provided to the Task Force.
APA Executive Directors, Rhea K. Farberman, APR, Public and Member Communications and Gwendolyn P. Keita, PhD, Public Interest Directorate for providing staff to support this Initiative including: Dana K. Wakefield, Assistant Director, APA Web Site and Dawn Barton, Manager, Information Architecture and Deborah DiGilio, Director of the APA Office on Aging, Public Interest Directorate and APA Staff Liaison to the Task Force. Deborah DiGilio worked tirelessly on the many details related to production of the Briefcase and was also a valuable source of information about APA for Task Force members.
