This service provides respite to caregivers by placing the child in a treatment foster home on a short term basis.  The temporary stay gives caregivers an opportunity to stabilize their environment, make it safe, and build supports to maintain the family unit and prevent placement in a more restrictive setting.  Respite includes the supervision and support of  the foster family and a professional case manager,as well as emergency services. This type of placement is approved and funded by the locality in which the child resides.
