Narrative

Adult Foster Care (also known as AFC), is a program for Elderly adults or adults with developmental or physical disabilities who cannot live alone safely. AFC Members live with trained, paid Caregivers who provide daily care. On a daily basis, AFC provides individuals with personal care assistance in a family setting rather than a nursing home or other residential facility. Caregivers provide meals, companionship, personal care assistance and 24-hr supervision. Caregivers may be individuals, couples or large families.
