What is AFC?
The Adult Family Care (AFC) program is program funded by MassHealth, that pays family or non-family members, a monthly tax free stipend to care for people aged 16 or older and who cannot live safely on their own.

Our registered nurses and case managers offer ongoing education, advocacy, and healthcare oversight through monthly home visits and phone consultations, with the goal of partnering with your whole family to help you care for your loved one in the comfort of home. The goal of the program is to keep people living in a home setting.

If you have any questions or inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us at 646-000-0000 or by completing the form below. Alternatively, you may submit the Referrals Form available under the "Referrals" tab.
