The term “Respite” in foster care is referring to a licensed foster provider that has clearance by your licensing agency/county to babysit your foster kids should you go out of town or just need a break!  Finding respite can be very difficult and connecting people who provide respite and those who need it,  is something we think is crucial! By getting the word out of your needs or what you can offer- we connect both sides of the street!
