Your Local NCFR

State, regional, and student affiliates keep you connected

A dozen state affiliates give NCFR a local flavor. Stay in touch with members in your area through conferences, events, communications, and committees. Plus, 20 student affiliates offer a great option for you to build your resume and connect your academic experience to real-world opportunities.

The Affiliate Councils purpose and function is to provide a forum and mechanism whereby elected representatives of local, state and regional Councils on Family Relations may exchange ideas and experiences and seek concrete methods to strengthen marriage and family relationships through their affiliation with the National Council on Family Relations. The Affiliate Councils Board (ACB) serves as the governing body for the Affiliate Councils.
