8.4 MILLION AMERICANS CARE FOR SOMEONE WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS

Family caregiving has become a public health issue that receives inadequate recognition in our country. While it can be rewarding to care for our loved ones, it often comes with significant physical, emotional and financial costs to the caregiver. On average, caregivers spend over 25% of their own income to support their loved one and provide 32 hours a week in unpaid care. AMCF offers up to a $1,000 financial relief grant to assist caregivers with unexpected expenses due to their caregiving role. If you are a caregiver to someone living with depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar, schizophrenia, autism, Alzheimer's, or other brain disorders, you are not alone, and we welcome you to apply for a caregiver grant today.
