Who We Are

Welcome to ACAP Hickory/Foothills! As the first community-based ACAP program, our chapter launched due to strong local interest in caregiver support.

We offer free monthly educational programs, an annual conference, and a range of resources tailored to caregivers in the Hickory/Foothills region. Our programs cover everything from using local healthcare resources and understanding North Carolina’s legal issues to effective financial planning for you and your aging parent.

Backed by senior services professionals, ACAP Hickory/Foothills builds a sense of community and shared experiences, helping both caregivers and their aging parents.

Join us to gain the insight, knowledge, and support you need in your caregiving journey!
