Welcome to Delaware Lifespan Respite Care Network

From time to time, families with caregiving responsibilities need opportunities for a break from caring for their loved one. The Delaware Lifespan Respite Care Network is here to help you find and finance respite opportunities so you have time to relax and rejuvenate.

We serve caregivers of:

  • Children with special needs or disabilities;
  • Adults with special needs, disabilities, or conditions associated with aging.

Call (888) 610-5572 or New Castle County (302) 221-2087 to speak to a specialist who can help you find care and identify resources to assist you.


NOTE: If you have submitted an application online, it has been received and will be processed in the order in which it was received. Due to a large influx of applications during the month of January, the review process will take longer than previously. All applicants will be informed by mail or email once a decision about their application has been made. We appreciate your patience during this very busy time.
