The Cridge Respite Program recognizes the challenges our families face in accessing important services and resources in their community, and in finding Respite Care Providers (RCPs). We can assist you in the following ways:
- We can help you navigate the process of hiring an RCP on your own by assisting you in writing a job ad and detailing your specific requirements, directing you to websites to post your job ad, providing you with sample interview questions, and helping you access respite funding. Please note that respite care costs are at the expense of the family.
- We can help you in advocating for your child, completing paperwork, attending school meetings, and dealing with the many challenges you may be facing.
- We can offer access to community events and activities through the support of our generous donors and business partners.
