It also assists in the psycho-social aspects of coping with CF on a day-to-day basis. Providing a network and a forum for communication among adults who have CF, their families and medical professionals, USACFA publishes CF Roundtable.

USACFA is operated out of the homes of the Members of the Board of Directors all over the United States. We have no corporate offices.
