National Family Caregiver Support Program (NFCSP)

NFCSP provides formula grants to states and territories, based on their share of the population age 70 and over, to fund a range of supports that help family and informal caregivers care for older adults at home. Grantees provide five types of services: information, access assistance, counseling/support groups/training, respite care, and supplemental services. Authorized under Section 371 of the Older Americans Act of 1965 (Title IIIE), as amended.
