Behavioral Respite Services
Changing Tides Family Services offers a specialized respite program to children and adults who have a developmental disability and severe behavior challenges as well. Behavioral respite is a more intensive and structured service to address the needs of families who have limited access to respite services due to the chronic behavioral challenges of their adult/minor children. The service is designed to empower clients and their families to improve their skills in the areas of communication and daily living needs by using positive behavior supports. The goal of the program is to reduce family stress and the need for long term, intensive behavioral services or residential placement. Clients must be referred by Redwood Coast Regional Center (707-445-0893). For more information, call (707) 445-5183 or 1(800) 795-3554. Changing Tides Family Services Behavioral Respite Service Administration is located at 3300 Glenwood Street, Eureka, CA 95501.
