Respite Program 


The respite service is designed to provide companionship by matching volunteers (often bi-lingual) to people with a disability, giving carers a short break to pursue other activities.

The Respite program provides:
1.'In Home' respite for people with a disability with a volunteer companion. These can be set regular times each month, or at irregular intervals throughout the year according to the individuals need. 

2.'Planned Group Day Acitivities' for the carer/family and the person with the disability to be able to participate in group outings/activities together with others in the wider community. With the knowledge and trust of the additional support of ADEC's respite programs. 

3.'Out of home respite' for individual people with a disability, especially for young people in their adolescent years, to be able to participate or attend activities of their choice. For example, being able to attend sporting events, recreation and other special activities with a respite volunteer.

ADEC

 ADEC strives to empower people with a disability from Non-English speaking backgrounds, their carers, and families to fully participate as members of the Victorian community. ADEC is a state-wide organisation.
