READ 2025 Project 2: Effect of Labor Market Policies on Care and Outcomes for People with Cognitive Impairment and Their Caregivers

This project examines how labor market policies affect the care of people with cognitive impairments and their caregivers. It focuses on the effects of minimum wages, work rules like the Fair Labor Standards Act, and immigration policy on the formal long-term care services used by people living with cognitive impairment, and on the resulting health outcomes for these individuals. A companion project under development will explore the effects of policy on formal and informal caregivers.
