Respite is designed to give families a break from the day-to-day care involved in supporting a child with special health care needs. Services include individual and specialized respite, where children spend time one-on-one with a caregiver in the family's home or community, group respite options for youth, Kids Club, Camp ChildServe, and opportunities for socialization and fun during the week and weekend.
