CareGiving 2025 – Stories of Impact

One in four Americans are now caregivers, a 50% increase since 2015. Nearly 30% care for both an adult with a medical condition and a child under 18. “If you ask most people what's the most morally profound, significant, meaningful thing in your life, they'll say something about the way that they have been taking care of children or parents or friends or spouses,” says Gopnik, a professor of psychology and philosophy at UC Berkeley, a world-renowned expert in child development. Yet, care has been “largely invisible” in moral philosophy, psychology, and policy. Gopnik says that’s because “the very nature of caregiving is that we care for people like infants or elders who are not going to be able to reciprocate. And that means that the whole structure of caregiving doesn't fit very well into the usual philosophical and political frameworks.". With support from TWCF, Gopnik leads a multidisciplinary team of gerontologists, childhood researchers, political scientists, philosophers, and AI scholars to explore what care is, how it develops, and how societies might better support it.
