SESSION INFO: « Back to all events

What’s your Recipe for Respite?
COVID is still here. And families need a break to stay safe and strong. We’re interested in learning about and sharing what families are already doing to get a break, as well as understanding the unique ingredients still needed to make respite a reality. Please join our discussion circle about how we can work together for families and their loved ones to have a safe and helpful break from the significant and daily stresses going on right now and into the next year.

Do you have respite dollars but cannot find support workers? Join us to chat about options and solutions to this dilemma as well as to hear about CLBC’s flexible options.

*For 1-1 respite support and information, please call our office directly at 1-800-441-5403 and quote “respite support” to be connected with staff delegated to this work.

*Last 10 minutes of this call will be a Facebook Live event!
