Care Communities

The Caregiver Coalition Fund of America (CareCFA) recognizes that there is a correlation between what we build today and how we will assist people tomorrow.   It is in this context that CareCFA is committed to developing Care Communities throughout the United States.  The Division of Care Communities brings to nonpaid family caregivers (i.e., family caregivers), programs that support their physical, emotional, spiritual, and socioeconomic needs, and promote their overall well-being. 

To support family caregivers, CareCFA encourages for-profit businesses, nonprofit and religious organizations, local agencies as well as community groups (e.g., senior centers, social-service groups) to participate in the Care Communities.  Bringing together businesses, organizations, agencies and community groups with family caregivers fosters relationships that enhances the ability of family caregivers to have access to products and services that address their needs as well as those of their care recipients.  Family caregivers, in return, provide support to businesses, organizations, agencies and community groups that enble these entities to better serve family caregivers .  This relationship betwwen business and organizational entitites and family caregivers is needed for their socioeconomic growth and well-being.   

Recently, the Caregiver Coalition Fund of America conducted a survey in which family caregivers expressed the need for better access to services.  The following link will take you to a summary of their responses.
