Adult Foster Care of the North Shore provides secure private homes and supportive caregivers for adults with disabilities or chronic illnesses. Many Adult Foster Care (AFC) clients are already living with a parent, child or other family member who qualifies as a caregiver. Other clients are placed in homes with diligent and compassionate AFC caregivers. If you are an adult with a disability or know of a disabled adult in need of care, AFC may be able to help. Our experienced team of nurses and care managers will assess your needs to see if you or someone you know qualifies for this innovative MassHealth program.

We Provide the Following Support:

Financial Support
Adult Foster Care is a MassHealth-funded program that provides a tax-free daily stipend to the caregiver.
