Huron Respite Network

Huron Respite Network Respite supports are for rest and renewal of the care-giving family. What is Respite Care? Read more about the Huron Respite Network.

Respite services and supports are for rest and renewal of the care-giving family. Respite is a flexible, periodic, short term break from care-giving that supports the caregiver to have opportunity or freedom to do other activities or simply rest. This time provides renewal to maintain and promote resiliency of the care-giving family. Respite creates greater opportunities for all family members to

live actively and participate in community activities while allowing caregivers time for themselves. A Respite Provider is a person who promotes active living for children and adults with developmental disabilities, Autism, or mental health needs in their own home or community, while providing relief for the primary caregiver. The Respite Coordinator works with families to identify respite options and develop a respite plan. She will help with funding forms, contact agencies on behalf of families and assist them to connect with respite providers. The Respite Coordinator also works with agencies to develop creative respite options for people, to identify the current resources and needs within the system, and to act as respite information resources to agencies supporting families.

With a new season upon us, we’re excited to share a few updates and introduce some new and familiar faces on our Huron Respite Team!

Brayden Lisiecki (she/her) is joining us as the Interim Manager for the Huron Respite Network. Brayden is new to our organization and brings a wealth of experience in community-based work, health promotion, and leadership. She has a warm, people-first approach and a strong connection to the local community, making her a wonderful addition to the team.

Brayden will be supporting and leading our Huron Respite Network team, including Melissa Milligan, Respite Associate, who has been a valued part of the team for over three years. Melissa is known for her creativity, dedication, and ability to build meaningful connections with the families and individuals she supports.

Brayden will also work closely with our Respite Support Worker, Remmi Johnston, who provides direct, person-centred community engagement support. Remmi also plays an important role in connecting with our contract workers and supporting meaningful experiences for those accessing respite.

We’re excited for the season ahead and grateful for the caring team that makes this work possible!
