Summary
H.Con.Res. 60 is a non-binding concurrent resolution that would express support for designating the week of November 10 through November 16, 2025, as National Caregiving Youth Week. The resolution aims to raise awareness and encourage national recognition of children and adolescents under 18 years of age who serve as primary or secondary caregivers for family or household members.
As a non-binding concurrent resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. If passed, it would serve as a symbolic statement from Congress recognizing the contributions of young caregivers. The resolution is currently in the House and has been referred to committee for consideration. The practical impact would be limited to raising public awareness about the challenges faced by children who take on caregiving responsibilities for family members.
