The “Relief” social service
This year, 100 000
women in the world
will become mothers
of disabled children.
What does this mean?
It means that, 24 hours
day, 365 days a year,
and THROUGHOUT
LIFE, the disabled child
will need constant
assistance.
The “Relief” service is
an opportunity to
entrust care of the
child, for a short time,
to a professional host
family. During this
time, the parents have
a chance to rest and
deal with urgent
matters.
We are today helping 70 families bringing up 90
children with special needs.
Our staff select and
train host families,
monitor placement of
children in host
families and the
quality of the services
provided
