Family Caregiving 101


The National Family Caregivers Association, (NFCA) in conjunction with the National Alliance for Caregiving, (the Alliance) created a powerful public education campaign entitled: Family Caregiving: It's not all up to you. This national campaign is designed using print and radio public service announcements and online resources to educate our nation's family caregivers on the importance of self-identification as the first step towards seeking support and maintaining a healthy balance between their own self-sufficiency and their caregiving responsibilities. Look for campaign ads in major airports throughout the winter of 2007

Learn about Family Caregiving: It's not all up to you at www.familycaregiving101.org This site is designed to provide family caregivers with the basic tools, skills and information they need to protect their own physical and mental health while they provide high quality care for their loved ones.

NFCA and The Alliance are grateful to our funding partner Eisai for all of its support in making this initiative possible.
