We are spreading the word about family caregiving and the special knowledge it takes to be effective in this crucial role. Keep in mind, the whole "family caregiver" category has only recently been identified, and many family caregivers don't even acknowledge themselves as such. Following are ways we are all working together to spread the word about family caregiving:

  • National Family Caregiver Month — Every November we celebrate NFC Month as a special time to reach out, recognize and support family caregivers
  • Legislative Caregiving Agenda - New information is constantly evolving. Here's where you'll find what new legislation is being proposed.
  • Get Involved — Learn how you can get personally involved at the local level as a voice for the caregiving movement
  • Media Room — Journalists visit here to access information, news releases and contacts for more information.
