Respite Care

Respite care is the short-term care of a child in order to give the regular caregiver a break. Search for respite care where you live using the ARCH National Respite Network and Resource Center’s national respite locator service .

If you can’t find a respite care opportunity where you live, learn more about how you can partner with public agencies to develop one by reading the following publications:

  • Creating and Sustaining Effective Respite Services: Lessons from the Field  (PDF – 1MB): This guide is intended to help States, Tribes, and parent support organizations understand the value of respite care in achieving improved outcomes for parents and youth, and build their capacity to sustain such programs after time-limited grants have ended.
  • Taking a Break: Creating Foster, Adoptive, and Kinship Respite In your Community (PDF – 2MB) / En Español (PDF – 1.4 MB): This publication is a step-by-step manual for developing a respite program, including sample forms that groups can use in the day-to-day operation of their programs.
