EVENING RESPITE

Creole | Spanish

FALL 2022: The center is open for in-person programming from 9 am - 3 pm, with transportation available also. Virtual programming continues also.

We are not yet open for extended evening hours.

For more information about the program, costs, and to register, please contact Executive Director Josephine Brown at 718-499-7701 or by email.

We hope to return to these extended hours before long:

The Center is open from 7 a.m. – 7 p.m. with services for persons with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia. The early and later hours are especially for caregivers who work or need longer respite times on occasion. Caregivers are responsible for dropping off their loved one at the Center for the morning extended hours, but the Center will provide van transportation at the end of the day if the home is in our catchment area.

There is an additional fee for extended hour services and a special hourly rate for our 12-Hour Program

EVENING HOURS: Monday through Friday 2 pm – 7 pm.
