Starting on January 22, our pilot project of Imagine…Respite!!
A monthly evening event where volunteers will care for children with challenges such as medical, developmental, behavioural, so that parents can get out and have a break. Government wait-lists for respite are up to 3 or 5 years. That means some families do not get a break at all for a long time. The evening includes pizza and snacks for the kids, games and activities, singing and Bible stories.
Parents can choose to go off-site or stay and have coffee in Checkers where they can meet other parents and various professionals in the special needs field. First priority will be given to families not receiving respite or or not enough. Then if there is room, others can also come.
Preregistration is required.
