Membership Benefits

The IARP Life Care Planning IALCP Section has a rich history serving the life care planning community.

The section was originally established in 1996 as the International Academy of Life Care Planners,  a privately owned professional membership association.  Its goals were to serve the advanced practice educational needs of life care planners and to promote the application of Standards of Practice for life care planners in the field. Contributions have included spearheading the development of Standards, peer-reviewed Fellow designation, and an international online membership directory. The section has grown to over 500 members across the United States and Canada since becoming an IARP section in 2006.
