Canonical definitions for GiveCare's core concepts. Other pages link here rather than redefining terms.

  • GiveCare Domains (GC1-GC6) — Six-dimensional framework for understanding caregiver needs. Assessments and runtime guidance use the same domain taxonomy.
  • Crisis Routing — How Mira detects and responds to safety signals. Three tiers: distress, imminent, continuity.
  • Caregiver Demographics — Who caregivers are, what they face, why it matters.
  • SDOH Framework — Social determinants of health applied to caregiving. Evidence base for the domain model.
  • Benefits Landscape — Federal, state, and local programs. The $60B unclaimed gap.
