Caregiving is not a one-person job.

If you are supporting a parent, sibling, or another loved one, save this as a reminder: asking for information is a sign of strength.

DM CARE to learn more about Adult Foster Care.

How can a Massachusetts family keep a loved one at home and get more support?

For some households, the answer may be Adult Foster Care.

AFC helps eligible MassHealth members receive personal care from a qualified live-in caregiver while receiving nursing oversight and care management. Eligible caregiver arrangements may also include a tax-free stipend through the AFC agency.

Care at home can feel less overwhelming when you have a team behind you.

Three reasons families choose to start the AFC conversation with CommunityFirst:

1. We serve families across Massachusetts.
2. Our staff provide multilingual support, including Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish, and other local dialects.
3. We focus on clear communication, caregiver support, and care that keeps families at the center.

If your family needs more support at home, DM CARE.

If you care for an adult with a disability in Massachusetts, please do not assume you have to navigate everything alone.

Adult Foster Care may be an option when the person you care for has qualifying MassHealth coverage, needs help with daily living, and lives with a qualified caregiver.

The program is built around care at home, with regular nursing oversight and case management.

Three signs the Massachusetts Adult Foster Care program may be worth looking into:

1. You live with the person you care for.
2. They have qualifying MassHealth coverage.
3. They need help, cueing, or supervision with daily activities.

Every family is different, so eligibility is reviewed individually. But if this sounds like your home, do not scroll past it.

DM CARE for a no-pressure conversation.

What happens after you ask about Adult Foster Care?

First, we learn about your loved one’s care needs, living situation, and coverage. Then we explain the program in plain language and help you understand whether the next step makes sense.

AFC is not one-size-fits-all. The goal is to help eligible members receive safe, supported care at home with a qualified caregiver.

DM CARE when you are ready to talk.

Your daily caregiving routine matters.

Helping with bathing, dressing, meals, mobility, or reminders may be part of what keeps your loved one safe and comfortable at home.

For some Massachusetts families, those needs may make Adult Foster Care worth exploring. The program is for eligible members who need physical assistance, cueing, or supervision with daily living.

Do not wait until you are completely burned out to ask for help.

Caring for someone you love should not mean carrying every responsibility by yourself.

For qualifying AFC households, caregiver training and support are paired with regular nursing oversight and care management. Eligible caregiver arrangements may also receive a tax-free stipend through an AFC agency.

Start with one message: DM CARE. 💚

The hardest part about caregiving is not always the care itself.

Sometimes it is the financial stress, the missed work, the uncertainty, and feeling like no one sees how much you are carrying.

You deserve to know what support may be available. For qualifying Massachusetts households, AFC may provide caregiver support and a tax-free stipend through an AFC agency.

Send us CARE in a DM. We are here to help you understand your options.

08/13/2026

Stop assuming you have to do all of this for free.

If you are a live-in caregiver helping a loved one with everyday personal care, you may have more support options than you realize.

Adult Foster Care is designed to help qualifying MassHealth members remain safely at home with caregiver support, nursing oversight, and care management.
