Respite Voucher Program – The Arizona Caregiver Coalition

The Arizona Caregiver Coalition offers family caregivers who live full-time with the care recipient temporary respite, a break, from their full-time caregiving duties.

The Respite Rebate Program allows family caregivers to be reimbursed for respite services they procure and are available to family caregivers on a quarterly basis.

This service is offered because they know that whether respite is for a few hours, respite care offers the chance reduce stress, restore energy and keep your life in balance.

Caregivers over the age of 18 who are living full-time with the care recipient and not receiving respite from any local, state, or federally funded program.

The Respite Rebate Program does not have an income qualification.

Qualified caregivers who complete the application process are issued rebate vouchers worth up to $300 per quarter.
