Hike 2 Heal's Respite Voucher Program
Taking a break from caregiving, or seeking respite care, can help ease the burden of caregiving, help relieve stress, restore your energy, and promote balance in your life. It can also prevent you from becoming exhausted, isolated, or even burned out. Sometimes a break outdoors is all that is needed to inspire your own strength from within.
Our respite voucher program provides short-term relief from caregiving to attend Hike 2 Heal activities. Services that can be paid for through the respite program include:
-
Facility Overnight Stay - short-term stay in a facility to provide a break from caregiving to attend overnight wilderness experiences.
-
In Home Care - Services may include personal care, companionship, and homemaking duties to attend overnight wilderness experiences, and day or afternoon hikes.
Please review the Respite Application Packet for more information.
