The roles of family caregivers are complex and range from assistance with daily activities and providing direct care to the care recipient to navigating complex health care and social services systems. As such, numerous studies have documented that ADRD caregiving has deleterious impacts on caregiver health and well-being. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, many caregivers do not avail themselves of existing services and programs and few evidenced-based programs are implemented in community settings. Digital technology solutions such as mobile applications, web-based platforms, sensing systems, and wearables hold promise in terms of enhancing the ability of caregivers to provide care and in reducing caregiver burden and distress. This presentation will discuss the potential of digital technology in providing support for family caregivers. An overview of available technology  \nInnovation in Aging, 2025, Vol. 9, No. S2 337  \nsolutions will be provided with case exemplars. Additionally, data will be presented from on-going research projects regarding the feasibility and acceptability of digitally based solutions such as virtually delivered interventions, which overall show that caregivers are receptive to and able to use technology. The data from these studies also show that technology-based interventions are efficacious and improve caregiver outcomes. Finally, the potential benefits and challenges with these solutions, factors associated with the adoption of technology and recommendations for needed research in this area will also be discussed.","cbCaivqOepRatXJn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivqOepRatXJn","pdf",656503,"English","# Overview of family caregiving challenges\n## Impacts on caregiver health and well-being\n## Barriers to existing services and evidence-based programs\n# Digital technology solutions for caregiver support\n## Promising tools: mobile apps, web platforms, sensing systems, wearables\n# Evidence and outcomes from research and case exemplars\n## Feasibility and acceptability of digitally delivered interventions\n## Efficacy and improvements in caregiver outcomes\n# Benefits, challenges, adoption factors, and research recommendations\n## Potential benefits and hurdles\n## Factors influencing technology adoption\n## Recommendations for needed research","[{\"question\":\"What caregiving challenges are described for family caregivers of older adults with ADRD?\",\"answer\":\"Family caregiving is complex and ranges from help with daily activities and direct care to navigating health care and social services.
