ABOUT THE PROGRAM: Respite
Respite means to take a break. Clients often need a way to take some space from the stressors in their lives and we are here to provide that.

The program is staffed 24/7 and you will develop strong relationships with other CHR programs, primary health and pharmacies to best support those in our care. Many clients enter Respite at their “breaking points” and feeling hopeless and have the opportunity to connect with caring staff who can make life feel worthwhile again. Staff are provided with a monthly staff meeting as well as individualized supervision as well as a program director who is on call 24/7 so you never have to feel alone.
