SUMMARY:FULL: Saturday Respite at DCAFS
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce Saturday Respite at DCAFS!\nOur respite program is designed to provide a flexible\, short-term break from caregiving for families\, allowing for rest and renewal. Our goal is to support caregivers and families so that they have the strength and energy to continue to be active care providers for their loved ones. \n\nSaturday Respite is tailored to meet the unique needs of each family. We offer a range of on-site activities and support\, including relationship building\, learning objectives\, play\, skill building\, and more!
