Family caregivers play a vital, but often unrecognized, role in caring for chronically ill, disabled or aged loved ones. The goal of NFC Month is to build caregiver self-esteem, expand caregiver self-awareness, and teach caregivers to become their own advocates.
NFC Month is sponsored by the National Family Caregivers Association (NFCA), the nation's leading family caregiver constituency organization. The TMA supports this effort to Share the Caring and acknowledges NFC Month as an opportunity to provide community-based activities in support of family caregivers.
For information on NFC Month and the National Family Caregivers Story Project, please contact NFCA.
