Supporting families with flexible, affordable respite options.

© In-Home Respite
Respite services in the family's home by paid caregivers chosen by the family to care for a child with special needs.  Vouchers reimburse the family to subsidize the cost of respite.

© Family Day Out
Respite in a center-based setting held on monthly Saturdays.  Children participate in recreation and craft activities and are matched one-one-one by a "buddy".  Siblings are invited to attend in order to give parents a true   day of respite.

Family Day Out is a day camp for children with disabilities and their siblings who are ages 3-15 years.  It's a time to play and have a day of fun while parents and caregivers take a much-needed "break" and take some "time out"!  The hours are 10:00 am – 3:00 pm.  Volunteers are matched with a child and become that child's "buddy" for the day, assisting with activities as needed. 

Family Day Out dates:
2008: March 1, April 5, Oct. 4, Nov. 1, Dec. 6,
2009: Feb. 7, March 6, April 4, Oct. 3, Nov. 7, Dec. 5,
