We are committed to building and maintaining positive relationships with community service providers, ensuring families have the tools and support they need for their children’s success.<\/p>\n Many children require additional support in school for a variety of reasons. However, the education system can be difficult to navigate. Since parents and caregivers are the primary advocates for their children, it is important to understand what is available, how to obtain services, and which services are appropriate for your child.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> 3-22<\/p>\n<\/div> Ages<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Referral via schools, service <\/span>providers<\/span> or self<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> 707-444-8293<\/a> | FEC@changingtidesfs.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> 2249 Myrtle Ave, Eureka, CA 95501<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div> Bilingual Spanish Services are available.

Respite care is a vital service that supports the health and well-being of caregivers while ensuring that individuals with disabilities are cared for by trusted, trained individuals. Caring for a child with developmental delays or disabilities can be rewarding, but also physically and emotionally demanding. Many families need regular breaks to rest, attend to other responsibilities, or simply recharge. Respite may be scheduled on a regular basis or used as needed or for special events.<\/span><\/p>\n In-Home Respite Services\u00a0means intermittent or regularly scheduled temporary non-medical care and\/or supervision provided in the person\u2019s home.\u00a0 Respite services are support services which typically include:<\/p>\n Respite care allows family members to:<\/p>\n 3 and up<\/p>\n<\/div> Ages<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Referral via Redwood Coast Regional Center, 707-445-0893<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>\n
