Description
The National Family Caregivers Association (NFCA) is a grassroots organization dedicated to improving the overall quality of life of caregiving families and minimizing the disparities between family caregivers and non-caregivers. NFCA reaches across the boundaries of different diagnoses, different relationships and different life stages to address the common needs and concerns of all family caregivers. Our mission is to empower family caregivers to take actions that will improve their life and the life of their loved one by providing them with support, education, and a public voice.
