DDS Respite Standardization
A new tool is being developed to help regional centers determine respite hours.
The goal of the Standardized Respite Tool is to:
- Create an easy-to-use form that provides some consistency across the state.
- Avoid big changes to the authorized respite hours that individuals and families currently have.
- Reduce differences in authorizations among families with similar needs across the 21 regional centers.
Public comment is open until 8/28/25. Learn more here:
