rEcess allows kids to be themselves and have fun with no expectations or demands. Children experiencing disability are paired one on one with an adult friend whose sole objective is to make rEcess the best night of their month!

Siblings are often forgotten on the spectrum of family care–not at rEcess. rEcess is also a break for our siblings to have lots of fun and connect with other siblings who understand what it is like to have a brother or sister experiencing disability.

We know your life is full of unique joys and challenges. rEcess is a break for you is an opportunity for you to rest and reconnect or recharge.

Do something fun!

Get to know other parents!

Every once in a while we will sponsor activities for parents to do together while their kids are at rEcess with the knowledge that your children are being well cared for and are safe.

The night is made possible only by our volunteer leaders and their passion to engage with some great kids while providing families a rarity- an evening tailored to their children. There is much to be gained from volunteering at rEcess and our volunteers value the connections they make with children and their families.
