About this service

Respite gives parents and guardians a temporary or short-term break from the daily responsibilities of caring for a child who has an intellectual disability. This can help improve the caregivers physical, emotional, and spiritual health and well-being.

Parents or guardians who think they may be eligible for a respite benefit must:

  • complete an application that includes signing a declaration indicating they will follow the stated guidelines of the respite program;
  • take part in an assessment of the support needs of the child using the Daily Living Support Assessment (DLSA), and an assessment of the impact of the disability on the family unit using the Family Impact of Disability Assessment (FIDA); and
  • consent to initial and annual income verification regarding their Notice of Assessment (NOA) information from the most recent taxation year, obtained through an information sharing agreement with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
