The My Time for Free Time Respite Group provides a supervised environment where caregivers can drop off family members with special needs from 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM on Thursday afternoons each week. Caregivers are provided respite from their duties and special needs adults can participate in supervised recreational activities. This service is open to the anyone in the community, not just for Hope members.
The Need:
Some Hope Lutheran Church members have special needs which may be the result of illness, injury, or cognitive impairment. Caring for special needs adults is often the full-time responsibility of family caregivers. Caregivers often need some free time from their responsibilities and special needs adults can benefit from opportunities to participate in supervised recreational activities in a safe environment.Who can join?
