South Dakota’s Structured Family Caregiving (SFC) program is designed to support individuals who need assistance with daily living activities but prefer to remain in a home environment.

Under this program, a family member or close friend becomes the caregiver for their loved one and assists in their day-to-day tasks. From personal care to homemaker services, the caregiver caters to the individual needs of the recipient.

This not only promotes a familiar and comfortable living situation for the care recipient, but also provides a structured framework and financial compensation for the caregiver, acknowledging their vital role in supporting their loved one.
