Description

Provides non-therapeutic, short-term childcare to families that have a child with a mental health diagnosis which requires ongoing treatment. The purpose is to give the guardian a reliable, planned break for a period of 2-4 hours. The guardian may use the respite time to run errands, attend professional or personal appointments, spend time with family and friends, take a class, renew old hobbies, enjoy quiet time, and/or spend valuable one-on-one time with their other children. Should not be used for school courses or work.
