Caregiver Award Program - 2007 - Virginia Department of Social Services
The Council on the Status of Women is charged by the Governor to identify ways in which women can reach their potential and make their full contribution to society and this Commonwealth as wage earners and citizens. The Council has established an annual Caregiver Award program that recognizes the contributions of those who help further this objective.
The Caregiver Award symbolically honors the thousands of caregivers who lovingly take care of family and friends day-after-day. Although the award is only given to a few caregivers, it serves to heighten public awareness of the contributions of all caregivers.
