Yes. The Family Caregiver Support Program, funded through the Older Americans Act, is administered by the Area Agency on Aging. It was developed to address the needs of the ever-increasing numbers of caregivers. The caregiver program focuses on caregivers of any age caring for those 60 and older and also on seniors (age 60 and older) who are primary caregivers for their grandchildren (age 18 and younger). For assistance contact our Family Caregiver Advocate at (864) 941-8067.

The primary goal of the Upper Savannah Area Agency on Aging is to develop and promote a comprehensive, coordinated community-based service delivery system with simple access that will improve the quality of life for all older adults in the region and enable them to lead independent lives with dignity in their own homes for as long as possible.
