Respite Care for Foster Care

Respite care provides short-term relief for foster parents by allowing trained caregivers to step in and care for children in foster placements for a brief period. This service is essential for maintaining the well-being of both the foster children and their caregivers.

Respite care ensures that foster parents have the opportunity to rest and recharge while their foster children receive high-quality care in a safe and nurturing environment. By providing this temporary support, we aim to prevent burnout among foster families and enhance the overall stability of placements.

If you are a foster parent in need of respite care or are interested in becoming a respite caregiver, please reach out to Henderson County Foster Parent Association for more information. Together, we can continue to support and strengthen our foster care community.

If you are a foster family in need of meal support, please reach out to us so we can coordinate a schedule for meal deliveries or pickups.

At Henderson County Foster Parent Association, we believe that a well-nourished family is better equipped to provide a loving and stable environment for foster children. Let us take care of the meals so you can focus on what matters most – caring for and supporting these vulnerable children.
