The Caregiver Resource Center (CRC) offers educational events, information, referral services and support groups for people who provide
care to an aging or disabled adult. Through collaborative relationships, we help to educate the community about the value of
caregiving. All of our services are provided at no cost.
The CRC operates a
durable medical equipment lending closet, which provides
equipment and supplies to those who need them, at no cost. Items available for loan include wheelchairs, walkers, shower benches and
other assistive devices. Our lending closet relies on donations from the community, which can be dropped off at our office (
3710 Cedar
Street).

Each year, the CRC partners with the Area Agency
on Aging of the Capital Area to present the "Striking A Balance" Caregivers Conference. This annual event provides a much-needed opportunity
for caregivers to learn more about local resources and acquire new skills that will enable them to better manage the challenges of
caregiving.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, please contact Eva Church, Director, at (512) 451-4611 or

you with your specific situation.
"Every caregiver that comes to us has different needs, responsibilities and support systems. Our mission is to guide each caregiver to the available resources best suited for their unique situation." — Eva Church, Director
