National Family Caregiver Support Program

The National Family Caregiver Support Program (NFCSP) is a federal initiative that provides resources and assistance to individuals caring for aging or disabled family members. It offers services such as respite care, support groups, educational programs, and information to help caregivers manage their responsibilities while maintaining their well-being. The goal is to ensure caregivers receive the support they need to effectively care for loved ones, promoting healthier and more sustainable caregiving. Funding is distributed to states and territories, which then implement local programs tailored to their communities’ needs.
