Abstract: The objective of this project is to assess the Military Caregiver PEER Forums to determine how they are currently improving and might better continue to improve caregiver well-being by reducing caregiver burden and addressing caregiver isolation. MC&FP will use the information gathered by this project to assess the implementation of PEER Forums and implement improvements, if needed. A complementary objective is to use the information gathered by this project to provide MC&FP with a framework for ongoing monitoring and evaluation of PEER Forums.
