Businesses have a role to play in supporting systems and creating communities that promote caregiver mental health and well-being, with direct and indirect impacts on child and adolescent mental health at the center. They also have a vital role to play in recognizing the importance of addressing caregiver mental health in implementing family-friendly policies and other good business practices that support caregivers in balancing their work and caregiving responsibilities.
