Kansas caregivers will soon be able to apply for $1,000 grants to help take care of those with Alzheimer’s and dementia. The state’s Respite for Alzheimer’s & Dementia program allows informal caregivers to apply for grants of up to $1,000 each year per person they’re caring for. That money can go towards approved adult day care, overnight care, in-home care and homemaker services, hopefully giving those caregivers a much needed break.
