Respite care is a family support service that provides temporary relief from the physical and emotional demands involved in caring for a family member who has a disability. Respite creates greater opportunities for all family members to live actively and participate in community activities and allows pa rents/guardians time for themselves.

Respite Co-ordinators

The Respite Coordinators in Halton will coordinate respite options for children and adults with a developmental disability and children up to age 18 with a physical disability, in conjunction with their families and other service providers. Short-term coordination will be provided in order to overcome barriers to respite for these individuals.


Support Provider Database

The Support Provider Database is an integral part of respiteservices.com. and aims to recruit a large base of providers interested in supporting persons with a developmental disability  and/or a physical disability to provide meaningful respite opportunities through community based options. Families are able to connect with workers to fulfill Special Services At Home contracts and  respite requests
