Family Care for Children and Youth - Respite Care
Provides short-term respite care in the event that a child needs periodic stays with a foster family during weekends, holidays, or other time periods. Respite care guarantees that a child always has a safe, familiar place to stay where he/she has already established productive family relationships. Respite care can also serve as a backup living arrangement in the event that a child needs to relocate.
