This is a members only discussion group for those who have joined 
the National Respite Network. The NRN supports the work of the 
Chapel Hill Training-Outreach Project, Inc. in promoting respite care 
for children and adults. 
   Life-span Respite legislation has been introduced to the US 
Congress. Membership dues go to supporting that legislative effort, 
the Respite Locator Service (www.chtop.org) and other activities 
that will help make respite care available to more and moren of 
us who are caring for young children with disabilities 
(and chronic illness) and the elderly.
