Parent often need a break from the demands of caring for a child with a disability: and children also need new experiences within the community.
FamilyCare provides support and respite to families of children and young people with a range of disabilities.
The Host program matches a child or young person with a disability with a qualified volunteer host or host family that can offer care in their own home to the person with a disability. Hosting is flexible and can be anything from a few hours, a full day or a weekend once a month. .
