IDD: Respite

We recognize the importance of the physical and emotional well-being of the primary care providers. Respite services provide staff to assist care providers in times of crisis, emergency or when they just need a break. Respite services can occur on weekends and after day habilitation or employment programs are completed. Whenever possible, qualified family members and/or significant others will be included and given priority in hiring and the employment of their program service staff.
