College of the Canyons, in partnership with the Santa Clarita Valley Senior Center, will host ongoing workshops designed to offer assistance to current and potential family caregivers.

The workshops will take place at the Santa Clarita Valley Senior Center starting January 27 from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and will continue throughout May 26 on the last Saturday of every month.

“The workshop will offer different perspectives from those who have made this transition successfully and provide participants with resources they may need to assist in this transition,” said Paul Wickline, dean of the School of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the college. “We hope this series of workshops continues to empower and educate community members who are caring for elderly loved ones.”

The Santa Clarita Valley Committee On Aging (SCVCOA) was formed in 1972 as a grassroots response to the needs of older persons in the Santa Clarita Valley.

The center provides comprehensive services to 10,000 seniors and their families annually in a 450 square mile area in and around north L.A. County Fifth Supervisorial District, according to their website.

The SCVCOA collaborates with over 50 government and private entities to administer over thirty individual programs, one of the largest spectrums of programs and services for senior citizens in the state of California. The SCV Senior Center is the only Senior Center in Los Angeles County that provides 19 of 21 programs and services listed in the Los Angeles County Senior Center Directory, according to their website.
