Agency-Hired Respite

Agency-Hired Respite provides families with trusted, qualified respite workers who are recruited, trained, and employed by our agency. These workers offer a much-needed break from full-time caregiving responsibilities by providing care in the home or out in the community.
Families receive 90 hours of respite care every 90 days, with the flexibility to use those hours as needed throughout each authorization period.
If the family has already identified a respite worker, we are happy to hire and train them. The respite worker may be a relative or family friend, as long as they are not the child’s primary caregiver (such as a parent, guardian, or step-parent).
With Agency-Hired Respite, families can take a break with confidence—knowing their child is supported by a caring, trained professional.
