GIVE ME A BREAK:
A Respite Program for Caregivers
Caregivers often hear the well-meaning advice to “take care of yourself,” but the truth is it’s not that simple. Between appointments, routines and responsibilities, getting a break can feel impossible.
That’s where GIVE ME A BREAK comes in.
This program was designed by Caregivers, for Caregivers so you can overcome the real-life barriers standing between you and the rest you desperately need. You can’t pour from an empty cup, and you don’t have to do this alone.
We walk with you, listen to your story and help you discover creative, doable ways of taking a break. There’s even a dedicated Respite Room waiting for you!

APPLY TODAY (Phoenix and surrounding suburbs) and once you’re accepted, you’ll receive $140 to use toward respite that brings you joy (some restrictions apply):
- In-home hired care, adult day programs
- OR something just for you: movie tickets, a spa treatment, an art class, time alone in nature or at your favorite museum…
You choose what fills your cup and we make it happen!
How It Works
Step 1: Clarity Call
We’ll talk one-on-one to understand your biggest barriers—and help you imagine what rest could look like.
Step 2: Build Your Respite Toolbox
Together we’ll explore your support system, identify realistic options, and create a simple plan.
Step 3: Take Your First Doable Step
We’ll help you set a date and take action. You’ll finally get the break you need—with zero guilt and no overwhelm.
BONUS: “Just Like Me” Home Care Plan
A revolutionary care guide that makes it easy for someone else to step in while you step away.
*Funding is limited so we encourage you to apply soon to give yourself the best chance at receiving support. We are currently serving those who reside in Phoenix and the surrounding suburbs. If you are outside of Phoenix and the surrounding suburbs, fill out the form to be placed on a waitlist.
