This group serves as a resource center and connection point for family caregivers from across the State of New Jersey to help one another out through the provision of information, referrals and support. This community is designed to foster a healthy exchange to provide insights and feedback on experiences and to lessen the burdens inherent in family caregiving. Ideally, members will find that this community helps provide support, education, empowerment and advocacy.

This group is sponsored and moderated by the National Family Caregivers Association, America’s premier organization for family caregivers reaching across the boundaries of diagnoses, age, and relationship to address the common needs and concerns of all family caregivers. Through education, support and advocacy NFCA empowers family caregivers to act on behalf of themselves and their loved ones, and works to remove the barriers that stand in the way of a family caregiver’s health and wellbeing.
