View Award Description

VIRGINIA LIFESPAN RESPITE GRANT - The Virginia Department for the Aging in partnership with the Virginia Caregiver Coalition, the Aging and Disability Resource Center and other key partners will implement a Lifespan Respite Care Program in the state. The goal of the project is to build a statewide coordinated caregiver respite system for families providing support to individuals of any age, and/or with any disability or chronic condition. The following objectives will be achieved: (1) build an integrated and sustainable lifespan respite infrastructure with the Coalition at the core; (2) strengthen the ID and DD voice, embedding it into the Code of VA and fully integrating it with the ADRCs; (3) assist caregivers in obtaining information about and access to respite care services; (4) expand the ADRC database with respite services for all ages and disabilities; (5) develop the ¿Family Caregiver Solution Center,¿ with web based tools and webinars; (6) train and recruit respite workers/volunteers with a statewide campaign, webinars and specialized trainings; and (7) develop and secure funding for an Emergency Family Respite Care Voucher Program for caregivers unable to afford respite in an emergency. Anticipated outcomes include (1) increases in respite care listings and referrals by ADRC partners; (2) increases in caregiver knowledge and preparedness to use respite; and (3) increases in volunteer preparedness to provide respite services. Products from the project will include a survey of respite services and funding sources; ¿Ask an Expert¿ columns in statewide publications; E-Quicktips; educational/promotional flyers; caregiver and respite worker/volunteer webinars; an implementation plan, donor report and budget for emergency family respite care voucher program; and conference presentations and abstracts.
