Respite Care Funding Program
The Respite Program is designed
to help the parents/guardians of handicapped and disabled
children to pay for care for their child for whatever reason – illness
of another member of the family, doctor’s appointments,
a special day with a sibling and/or spouse, or simply time
for the family or individual to take a break and “recharge”.  It is our goal to help the
families and primary caregivers of handicapped and disabled
children reduce their stress levels and feelings of isolation. We try to be flexible within
the boundaries of our funding agency’s requirements
in order to respond to each family’s situation. Applying for respite funds
should not burden the family with more stress. We
are happy to help with paperwork or answer questions. Please feel free to call us
at 698-0674 if you have any questions.
