Apply For the Give Me a Break Respite Program
We’re so excited that you’re here! Taking a step toward respite is an important and courageous decision.
Caregiving is a deeply meaningful role, but you can’t do it alone—and you shouldn’t have to.
WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU APPLY
- A Home Care Planner: a revolutionary tool to get all the information in your head onto paper so that your loved one receives the support, companionship and care they deserve.
- The grant amount per Caregiver is $140* to use towards a hired Caregiver to give YOU a break (in-home hired care, adult day programs, overnight stays, volunteer support…) or towards an activity that will provide YOU with respite and joy (movie or play tickets, a spa treatment, an art class…).
*We are currently serving those who reside in Phoenix and the surrounding suburbs. If you are outside of this area, you can still apply but will be placed on a waitlist.
Congratulations on this bold step of applying! You’re prioritizing your well-being and taking the first step toward getting the support you deserve. We understand that even reaching out for help takes a lot of courage.
What to Expect
- STEP 1: APPLY by filling out a short application and answering a few questions about your caregiving situation. Be sure to schedule a call with our Compassion Team before you submit your application (information is on the application).
- STEP 2: TALK TO OUR COMPASSION TEAM. They’ll share next steps and can answer any questions you may have.
Please note that applying is not a guarantee of receiving respite, and it also doesn’t commit you to anything—this is about taking the first step toward a well-deserved break. We look forward to connecting with you and supporting you on this journey!
