Blacktown Respite Options

About Blacktown Respite Options

The service provides a respite options program for a limited number of families living within the Blacktown Local Government Area. The children are aged between 0-18 years, with a moderate to severe disability and having high support needs. Each child accepted on to the program is allocated funds for the financial year, which are then used to meet the family's respite needs. Each child is assigned a one to one carer for the duration of their funding. The carer is carefully selected, given the child's specific needs. HACC funded.
