    About This Guide

    This guide was created to help individuals and families in Arizona navigate long-term care with more clarity and confidence. Whether you're planning ahead or facing an immediate care need, finding the right support can feel overwhelming.

    Inside, you'll find a curated list of nonprofit organizations across Arizona, including caregiver support services, disease-specific foundations, veteran resources, and community-based programs. Each listing includes verified contact information and a brief description to help you quickly understand what's available.

    Our goal is to make it easier for you to explore your options, connect with trusted long-term care resources in Arizona, and take the next step with confidence.

    💡 Quick Tip: Dial 2-1-1 anywhere in Arizona for immediate referrals to local nonprofits, social services, food assistance, and more.

    We strive to keep this directory accurate and up-to-date. However, nonprofit organizations change, merge, or close over time, and web addresses can change without notice. Always verify contact details directly with each organization. If you find an outdated listing or are a nonprofit that isn't listed and would like to be included, please reach out to us at hello@LTCareNav.com.
