Respite Care
Since 1977, the Respite Care program has provided free, emergency child care to parents who need time to handle crises, attend appointments, find a job, look for housing and attend to other essential needs.
Respite is a large, comfortable home with areas for infant care, nap time, toy-filled play areas, a roomy dining room and kitchen and a large backyard equipped for play. Respite serves as an extended family for often-isolated families. Its therapeutic and homey setting is an oasis of stability and comfort for children whose families are struggling or in crisis. Respite’s expert staff assesses and addresses the needs of each child and regularly consults with parents to help them understand and access available resources.
Respite Care Hours:
Monday-Thursday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM
