Let’s get started. HFC respite grants cover the cost of professional, in-home or Adult Day Center care so you can feel confident about the care being provided to your person while you take some time for yourself. HFC works with our preferred provider, Home Instead®, to coordinate care for in-home grant recipients, we do not issue cash awards to cover any other provision of care.
We grant two types of awards: In-Home Respite Grant- 100 hours total of respite care to be used within 3 months of being awarded Adult Day Center Respite Grant- 24 days of respite care to be used within 3 months of the first date of care **VERY IMPORTANT** Respite grants provide in-home, professional care and have NO CASH VALUE. Cash awards cannot be issued in lieu of in-home care.
HFC’s works with a preferred partner to coordinate the in-home care awarded through HFC’s respite grant program. If care cannot be provided by a licensed provider within 60 days of the award for any reason, the grant will become void.

Are you facing financial and emotional hardships due to the unique challenges of caring for someone with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia? Do you reside in the United States or Canada? (Please note, at this time, we are unable to provide grants in Puerto Rico or other U.S. territories).
