WETA; the George Washington University Institute for Brain Health and Dementia; Elizabeth Dole Foundation; Caregiver Action Network; and the National Partnership for Healthcare and Hospice Innovation are pleased to announce the debut of Caregiving, a new landmark PBS documentary highlighting the challenges and triumphs of caregiving in America.

Caregiving, the two-hour documentary from executive producer Bradley Cooper, explores the creation and evolution of the American care system, the social dynamics that shape our approach to caregiving today, and the possibilities for caregiving in the future. The film examines caregiving from multiple perspectives, taking an intimate look into the lives of caregivers and their relationships with those in their care.

With tens of millions of Americans serving as unpaid caregivers, this documentary and discussion come at a crucial time for a national dialogue on caregiving. The event will spotlight the personal, social, and policy issues surrounding caregiving and highlight opportunities for innovation and reform.

The two-hour documentary Caregiving premieres Tuesday, June 24 at 8 p.m. ET, on WETA PBS and PBS stations nationwide. Streaming begins May 27 on pbs.org and the PBS App.
