National Respite Care Provider Training: Lessons from the States, August 28, 2024

ARCH National Respite Network and Resource Center, in partnership with NASHP and the Respite Care Association of Wisconsin, piloted a competency-based respite provider training and recruitment initiative in 10 states. This project was funded as a part of NASHP’s Lifespan Respite Special Projects grant funded by the U.S. Administration for Community Living. As a result of the pilot, this training is now available to all states free of charge. In this webinar, learn about the results of the pilot and how to build a training and recruitment program for respite providers in your state by accessing the new National Respite Care Provider Training and Replication Toolkit. Two pilot states, Wisconsin and South Carolina, will highlight their approaches and lessons learned in building and scaling a respite provider recruitment and training initiative.
