Justifications for Caregiving in White, Asian American, and Native Hawaiian Grandparents Raising Grandchildren

Abstract

Justifications for raising grandchildren appear to differ among groups based on racial identification. Findings elucidate cultural justification for caregiving in understudied GRG populations and suggest that justifications for caregiving are configured differently in GRG and family caregivers for older adults. Future studies should examine justifications for caregiving in GRG of other races.
