AFL Program
The Adult Family Living (AFL) program, also referred to as Caregiver Homes of Connecticut, is a specialized initiative aimed at providing support to frail elderly individuals who wish to continue living in private homes instead of relocating to assisted living communities or nursing homes. program offers financial assistance and other forms of support to family members or friends who act as primary in-home caregivers and hosts of the elderly individual. AFL can be likened to a form of foster care for adults.
Getting care from us
Caregivers play a crucial role in providing support and assistance to those in need. It's important recognize the value of their efforts and compensate them accordingly. In the case of family caregivers, paying them for their work can help alleviate financial burdens and ensure that they are able to continue providing quality care.

What you get as a participant?
The AFL/Caregiver Homes program offers benefits to both the care recipient and the caregiver. Care recipients receive personal care, assistance with daily activities, and the opportunity to live in a familiar environment. Caregivers receive compensation for their efforts, which can be especially helpful for family members who would have provided care for free. While the amount of compensation varies, caregivers can expect to receive between 60% and 80% of the total amount.
