Caregiving, Financial Stress, and Retirement Confidence: What the 2026 RCS Reveals

July 22, 2026

As caregiving becomes a growing reality for millions of American workers and retirees, new questions are emerging about how unpaid caregiving may affect retirement confidence, financial security, workplace needs, and long-term planning.

Please join the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) and Greenwald Research for a timely webinar discussing new findings from the 2026 Retirement Confidence Survey on caregiving and retirement.

During the webinar, Craig Copeland of EBRI, Lisa Greenwald of Greenwald Research, Kerry Sette of Voya Financial, and Cynthia Hutchins of Bank of America Merrill Lynch will discuss what the latest research reveals about unpaid caregivers, how caregiving responsibilities intersect with retirement preparation, and what the findings may mean for employers, benefits professionals, policymakers, and others focused on work force and retirement security.

Caregiving can affect workers and retirees in ways that go well beyond the immediate demands of providing care. This webinar will explore the broader financial, workplace, and retirement-planning implications of caregiving and provide a closer look at what the latest RCS findings suggest for the future.
