Carers Program
The Care for Carers program was established to offer support to carers of people with neuromuscular disorders, in particular those from regional/ rural NSW and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

The carers program aims to support families through a range of services running regular metro and regional carer social events, information and educational seminars and by providing advocacy and an information and referral response to carers seeking relevant services and additional support.
