Circle of Care assists children and families coping with a life-threatening illness, loss, bereavement, or trauma through support groups, crisis intervention services, and home-based counseling and support services. Circle of Care is a program of the East Bay Agency for Children and has been serving residents of Alameda and Contra Costa Counties since 1982.
Circle of Care is one of very few programs in the country devoted exclusively to the needs of children and their families who face these overwhelming family crises. Moderate fees are set on a sliding scale. No one is turned away because of inability to pay.
