Family Caregivers Fight On!
Welcome to the LACRC, a program of the USC Family Caregiver Support Center (USC FCSC) the community service arm of the Leonard Davis School of Gerontology. We support family caregivers in LA County who help an adult relative or friend (over the age of 18) with one or more of the following tasks: physical care (getting in and out of bed), making health care decisions, cooking, cleaning, yard work, managing medications and going to doctor visits, making important decisions, shopping for groceries and other items, legal issues, help with bill-paying, bathing and dressing, or providing transportation.
We help informal, unpaid family caregivers who are caring for family members or friends. We are proud to serve families of all cultures and communities in LA County. We are funded in part by the State of California Department of Health Care Services, LA County Workplace Development, Aging, and Community Services, and the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology. Our services are provided at low or no-cost to family caregivers and friends who help someone over the age of 60 with chronic medical conditions.
