Dec. 2020: The Ministry of Health has advised that all Adult Day Programs (ADP) - including ours at the Family Respite Centre (FRC) – are still suspended until further notice. Virtual programming between FRC staff and ADP families will continue.

Our Overnight Respite program will continue to remain open with limited capacity to observe appropriate physical distancing guidelines, with some additional regulations and restrictions in place as per the Ministry of Health.  We will provide updates when we receive further information.
