The Children's Community Respite Program provides parents and primary caregivers with a needed break from the responsibilities of full-time care-giving. Respite provides family with time to focus on building relationships with other family members and friends, or simply having some time for themselves.

Respite Care gives children with special needs an opportunity to participate in a wide range of experiences that promote growth and development. Relationship building outside of the family unit and the opportunity to experience new activities and environments are conducive to building self-confidence and a sense of belonging in the larger community.

Carefully screened respite caregivers provide support either in home or community.
