In today's hectic world, the competing demands of work and family life can be more challenging than ever. The USC Center for Work and Family Life is a one-stop destination dedicated to helping you maintain a balance between your personal and professional lives. We provide integrated services for the USC faculty/staff community and their families designed to support you throughout your work experience at USC.

We understand that everyone has unique needs and faces different challenges. Whether you need support coping with personal or relationship issues, workplace conflict, a referral for dependent care or a workshop on stress management, you'll find the help you seek from one of our dedicated and highly trained professional staff members.

Our core services include brief, solution focused counseling for a wide range of personal and work-related concerns, consultative support for faculty, managers and departments, as well as a variety of programs and services targeted to help you find and preserve a healthy work-life balance. We also maintain an extensive network of additional resources for referral, both at USC and in the community.

Formerly known as the Staff/Faculty Counseling and Consultation Center, the center was established more than 25 years ago and was the first multi-purpose employee counseling service to operate at a university. The name of the center has changed to the Center for Work and Family Life to better reflect the wide range of services we offer to support our diverse faculty and staff community.

 

Eligibility

All benefits-eligible faculty, staff and their dependent family members are eligible. Retired faculty, staff and their dependent family members are also eligible. Prospective employees also may contact the Center to inquire about family and dependent care resources, health and wellness initiatives, work/life policies, and programs and support services available at USC, as well as information regarding relocation assistance and help in seeking employment for spouses/partners of new faculty. Services are a benefit of your employment at USC and are always free of charge.

All information regarding your use of our services is kept strictly confidential, with the rare exception when disclosure is required by law. The center goes to great lengths to maintain your right to privacy. No information on your use of the center is ever placed in university or departmental files. Utilization of our services will in no way jeopardize your job security or opportunities for promotion. The center's records are maintained as part of appropriate clinical practice and for internal statistical purposes only.
