Launch a Regional Seed Chapter: The Chapter in a Box.
A structured, mission-first operational framework enabling local psychologists, aroma specialists, gerontologists, and community advocates to convene 8-person care circles backed by practical AI tools and collective peer support.
IAICA maintains local community liaison activities in the locations listed below. The proposed transnational caregiver support pilot is a separate initiative and remains in preparation. The U.S. 501(c)(3) status belongs to International AI Caregiving Association. A listing here does not establish separate legal registration or tax-exempt status in another jurisdiction.
