Sandra, RCSA Staff

What I love about RCSA is greeting the parents and listening to them talk about how their child is grown and learning. How staff is loving and understanding with their child.

Dana Terracina, Former Board Member

Respite Care was so important to me because … I was the one who was blessed by being a part of such a compassionate mission … My memories of Respite remind me always of the fragility of life but also of the courage and strength of the angels put in the care of the amazing Respite team. May God continue to bless them all.

KRISTYE PEREZ

The staff is always so friendly – they genuinely love what they do, and it shows. It is so refreshing to finally experience an atmosphere where all children are celebrated equally and especially for a parent of a special needs child, that in itself, means the world.

Brian Biggs, Former Board Member

Seeing the faces of the kids, seeing them on the playground, hearing the sounds of joy and laughter, and knowing what they’ve been through…that makes it special. The chance to not only help those in need, but to see lives changed. The love, healing and growth that happens at Respite Care is something to behold.

Crystal

It's amazing. They've given me that sense of comfort. A sense to know that it takes a village and … I've finally found my village

ELYSSA VOGT

What I love about Respite is they put all the kids needs above their own. They focus on helping not just the children but the families as well. I didn’t think I could love a daycare as much as I do this place. We absolutely love it there!

KRIZIA

When I come to Respite Care I know that when I leave my children there that they are in great hands. I know that they're going to get the same love and attention that I would give them if I was at home with them.
