The Nevada Lifespan Respite Summit is an opportunity to discuss respite supports and services in Nevada and what collectively we want to accomplish in the future. This is a statewide gathering of representatives from families engaged in giving care, stakeholder groups (respite providers, human resources, social services, developmental disabilities, public health, mental health, maternal and child health, and aging services), and others who are interested in the future of respite and respite services in Nevada. National speakers from AoA and ARCH will also be attending.
Representatives from a broad list of agencies, programs, and caregivers representing all ages and disabilities are sought for participation in the Summit.
