Respite Providers……………………...…………………………………………………………………FRS Administered

RespiteServices.com is a provincial website that will help families to easily access respite workers and services within their local community across Ontario. Families of individuals with developmental disabilities and children with physical disablities can now register online and gain information about respite services offered in their community. It coordinates a network of agencies and organizations providing respite service to individuals. We are collaborating with our community partners to develop a respite network for both children and adults.

About Respite Providers

Family Respite Services believes that respite strengthens families.  We work with families to develop flexible respite services.  Respite care looks different in each family.  Some families choose to have a respite provider care for their child in their home, while others want a time when their child is involved in activities in the community.  Some families find that respite provided out of home best suits their needs.
