Please join us for this important statewide event.
The Lifespan Respite Summit is a special one-day event for government agencies, Aging and Disability Resource Centers (ADRCs), statewide organizations, community and faith-based agencies, respite providers, and family caregivers representing all ages and disabilities.
Join us October 22, 2015, for this FREE working meeting to learn more about Lifespan Respite in Idaho. Help us educate everyone across the state about the need for respite and share your voice on ways to improve the accessibility of respite for our caregivers.
The Lifespan Respite Program, funded by the US Administration for Community Living, was established to help states expand, enhance, and coordinate respite services. The Idaho Caregiver Alliance works to meet these goals and serve all family caregivers. This LSR program includes families, individuals, and children affected by developmental disabilities, other disabilities, mental health issues, aging, chronic illness or individuals at risk for abuse or neglect.
