​Take the Elizabeth Dole Foundation's Hidden Heroes Survey

According to the RAND study Hidden Heroes: America’s Military Caregivers, around 30% of military caregivers rely on “religious or spiritual support networks to meet the challenges of caregiving.” Despite this, very few resources targeted specifically towards military caregivers exist in the faith community. In order to better understand what gaps exist (in knowledge and resources) in the faith community as it relates to military caregivers, the Interfaith Action and Ministry Impact Council – convened by the Elizabeth Dole Foundation – has developed and is circulating two surveys; one for caregivers and one for leaders in the faith community. These surveys are intended to highlight the missing elements that prevent the faith community from offering effective support to military caregivers. We would appreciate your taking time to answer the following questions to help us better understand what resources might be most useful to the faith community in supporting caregivers nationwide.

We connect organizations and individuals who can help the Ethiopian community thrive.
