Respite care is a home- and community-based program that provides parents and other caregivers with short-term child care services that offer temporary relief, improve family stability, and reduce the risk of abuse or neglect. Respite can be planned or offered during emergencies or times of crisis. Services are offered to children with behavioral/ emotional problems and their families by providing services that evoke maximum potential and foster the development of cognitive and social competence.
Our commitment to quality care is evident in the strong bond our staff create with the children.
