This work involved surveying CWLA and ARCH agencies about the planned and crisis respite services they provide, convening focus groups to discuss respite service issues, and studying the efforts of four jurisdictions to deliver respite care. For this project, respite is defined as temporary relief for primary caregivers. Respite services provide short-term care to children and adults with special needs, chronic illnesses, or those at risk of abuse and neglect. This report describes the survey's findings; documents approaches to funding, administering, and delivering planned and crisis respite services to families, as described in the case studies; and makes preliminary recommendations on expanding and enhancing these services to support families and caregivers nationwide.
