For family caregivers

The care you give. Support behind it.

Already caring for someone you love? Many state Medicaid programs allow family caregivers to be paid. We’ll help you understand what your state allows and what comes next.

How your application is reviewed

A person reads your application and a person decides. We do not use software that scores, ranks or grades applicants, and no automated tool decides whether you are hired. If that ever changes, we will tell you before it applies to you, and you can ask to be considered another way.

Your state may name a law for this
  • California. California's rules on automated decision systems cover any software used to make a hiring choice. We keep the records those rules ask for, and we do not use such a system to decide who is hired. (California Civil Rights Department regulations on automated-decision systems, under the Fair Employment and Housing Act, since 1 October 2025.)
  • Illinois. Illinois says an employer must tell you when artificial intelligence is used in hiring, and may not use your ZIP code as a stand-in for race or another protected trait. We use neither. (820 ILCS 42, the Artificial Intelligence Video Interview Act, and the 2026 amendments to the Illinois Human Rights Act (HB 3773), since 1 January 2026.)
  • New York City. New York City asks for a bias audit and at least ten business days' notice before an automated hiring tool is used on you. We do not use one, and if that ever changed you would get that notice first. (New York City Local Law 144 of 2021, since 5 July 2023.)
  • Texas. Texas set rules for how artificial intelligence may be used and what you must be told about it. Here the answer is that no automated system sorts applicants at all. (the Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act (HB 149), since 1 January 2026.)
With area code, e.g. (412) 555-0142. We call this number back.
Five digits. It tells us which local team calls you.

One moment. We are checking that you are a person.

No documents needed today. We'll only use this to contact you about care — never for marketing lists, and never over unsecured channels.
