Project Child Family Support Program

Coordinator: Maria Galullo

The Project Child Family Support Program provided over 4,000 hours of respite to the families of children with disabilities during the 1999-2000 school year. Respite care took place in the home or at the Saturday On-Site Program at the Joseph F. Cappello School. Any student in Mercer County who has been identified as having a disability and is registered with the Special Child Health Services Unit is eligible to apply for respite care. All family support workers must complete a training program and a CPR certification course. The workers must also attend continuing education programs three (3) times during the year.
