About this service
The VFAF program is a program designed to match trained caregiver support volunteers to a person living with ALS/MND and their family members. These volunteers would provide practical assistance and advocate for the caregiving family, saving them time, energy and allowing them to focus on their relationships and major issues of care. As well, these volunteers might also help to mobilize other community resources, but would not provide direct patient care. It is anticipated that the volunteer would develop relationships with various members of the caregiving family and would provide support even after the death of the person living with ALS/MND.
Who can use it?
