The U.S. Administration on Aging has declared 2011 the "Year of the Family Caregiver” in honor of the10th Anniversary of the federal National Family Caregiver Support Program (NFCS). To recognize NFCSP’s decade of achievement and the family caregivers we serve, the U.S. Administration on Aging is collaborating with national caregiver organizations to sponsor a year of celebration. Join us! We are encouraging communities all across America to join in this celebration by:
. Hosting ceremonies and events to honor caregivers and caregiver supporters.
. Conducting information sessions about the role of family caregivers and the support NFCSP can provide.
. Engaging community leaders and policymakers to think about their vision for the next 10 years of support for family caregivers.
Use this website to download ready-made materials for planning and promoting your Year of the Family Caregiver events and help us celebrate the 10th anniversary of the NFCSP.
