Respite provides a scheduled break for the family and child to ease the stress when an emotional challenge exists. This provides a “breather” in which you – the parent or caregiver – can assess which resources will be of most benefit for your child and your family. Trained respite workers will provide group respite to your child, which may include fun recreational activities and socialization opportunities.
