Benefits of Joining FCA of SJ & ML

  • NEW MEMBER PACKET —  To see a list of everything you'll receive, click here to download document.
  • SAVINGS —  The funeral costs with our contracted Mortuary can save you hundreds, even thousands of dollars. Go here  to see the current contracted costs for basic mortuary services.
  • NEWSLETTERS — Two times a year, members receive our newsletter which keeps them up to date with information about FCA of SJ & ML local providers of funeral goods and services, funeral industry news on the state and national level, and more.
  • FREE OBITUARY POSTING on our website — Obituaries in the Record and other newspapers are often the most expensive column inch in the entire newspaper.  You can save hundreds, even thousands of dollars by limiting the print obituary to a briefly worded notice that advises readers to read the full obituary on our website at https://fcasj.weebly.com/member-obituraites.html.
  • KNOWLEDGE — You become an educated consumer by learning how to avoid unnecessary expenses.
  • OBJECTIVITY — You get advice from knowledgeable people who are not in the business of selling funeral services.
  • PLANNING — Your new member packet includes directives where you can specify what kinds of medical treatments you do and/or do not want if you are unable to speak for yourself; and what you wish to have done with your body after you die. Although you may find it challenging to discuss end-of-life choices with our loved ones, you will be saving them from having to guess what you wanted during a very difficult time.
  • TRANSFER ARRANGEMENTS — We can transfer your membership to another Funeral Consumers Alliance if you move from our five-county service area.
