How is 'caregiving' defined for this event?
Balancing Act acknowledges many vectors of care and understands a caregiver may be someone caring for children, aging adults, those in need of personal or primary care, as well as someone who may be caring for the community. We acknowledge that care work can include blood, adopted, or chosen family, colleagues, and caring for others out of duty.
