Team Daniel Foundation Respite Fund
The path to services can feel like a maze. When you discover CAP services, the CAP waiting list can be long and/or frozen due to budgetary reasons. We understand that this often happens and we know that families need a break.
Team Daniel Foundation wants to provide families in North Carolina with an opportunity to receive 75 hours of respite services to a family of a loved one with a developmental disability who receives no services and/or is on the waiting list for services. Because the TDF Respite Fund serves siblings, families already served under the LLC will not be eligible for TDF Respite services.
Here is how you qualify for the 75 Respite hours:
