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 Programs in Your Region

Please note that the support groups and other caregiver support services listed here are offered by independent community organization staff and/or volunteers 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 staff/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.
