Read our Alzheimer Disease research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a program called CuidaTEXT, which sends text messages to family caregivers of people with Alzheimer's disease. The messages provide education, emotional support, self-care tips, and advice about managing difficult behaviors. Researchers want to see if this text message support helps Latino caregivers feel less stressed and more confident in their caregiving role.
Family caregivers of people with Alzheimer's often feel overwhelmed, depressed, and isolated—especially in Latino communities where support resources may be limited or hard to access. This treatment uses text messaging because it's convenient, affordable, and meets people where they already are.

If you join, you'll be randomly assigned to either receive the CuidaTEXT text messages for 6 months or to wait 7 months before receiving them. You'll receive a mix of automatic messages and messages triggered by keywords you use, covering topics like understanding Alzheimer's, managing stress, self-care, and handling difficult behaviors. Throughout the study, you'll also complete brief surveys about your mood, how you're coping, and how prepared you feel as a caregiver.
