Other Community Supports

This is a starting point for support and resources for caregivers in British Columbia. We list most frequently used resources, including a listing of Crisis Lines should you urgently need to speak with someone, and a list of Information & Referral (I&R) Services you can call to seek information not highlighted on this site.

Caregiver Support Groups in your Region

As we work to build a comprehensive list of regional support groups, please call the caregiver support line to find local caregiver support groups for the time being. Toll Free Support Line: 1-877-520-3267

Please note that support groups are facilitated by independent community volunteers or community organization staff and are not supervised or overseen by FCBC, with the exception of groups specifically identified as FCBC groups. While we offer initial support group training to volunteers, we cannot take responsibility for the content of non-FCBC support groups or the conduct of facilitators or participants. Peer-to-peer support groups are not a substitute for health advice or an opinion from a qualified health practitioner.
