“Before staying at the Rotary Respite House, Nate had never stayed away from home with anyone other than his grandparents. As a mom, I was anxious as to how Nate would be, staying overnight in a place he had never been before, with people he had never met before. NATE LOVED IT! He had a great time at the Respite House and was excited when he got the chance to go back again. The staff at the Respite House are excellent and I know that Nate is surrounded by caring, compassionate people who truly take an interest in him. I cannot say enough about how truly thankful I am that we are able to access the Respite House!” ~ Christine (parent)
”The Rotary Respite House is a vital and amazing place. The meticulous detail and care that goes into each child’s visit is evident. The Rotary Respite House is a safe, inviting and fun place for our son to visit. The staff and volunteers are extremely dedicated and truly wonderful individuals who go above and beyond to support each child and ensure each child has a positive experience. We are very grateful for the opportunity our son has to visit the Rotary Respite House!
~ Chad and Megan (Jack’s parents)
“The Rotary Respite House has been such a great support for us. With having no family nearby to watch our kids so that my husband and I can have a date night, we are thankful for the breaks that we get through RRH. We know the kids are safe and having lots of fun while we have a chance to rest, recharge, and spend some quality time together. It is also such a relief to know that they work around our kids’ food likes and allergies as it is one less thing that we need to worry about.” ~ Pam (Aidan’s and Michah’s mom)
