Tapestry Family Services

Respite for Foster Families

Foster families are provided respite care of up to 72 hours per month. Respite care can be used for a day or overnight break, or accumulated for longer vacations or other family needs.

Tapestry Family Services is recruiting respite providers from the local community who are interested in working with children with emotional challenges. Being a repite care provider is a great way to get hands-on training and find out if you'd like to be a full-time foster parent. If you are interested in learning more about becoming a respite provider, please email Heather Patrick at heatherp@tapestryfs.org or call (707) 463-3300 ext. 118 for more information.
