Caregiver Respite Program

The St. Leo Respite Program provides support and respite services to people living with dementia and their families. Participants engage in friendly conversation, play games, and enjoy activities in a safe and fun environment while their caregivers have respite. This program is supported by Volunteer Companions, who provide companionship, assist with facilitated activities, and help create a sense of belonging in a supportive, dementia-friendly environment. The program runs weekly on Thursdays, with a session from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM and a second session from 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM. Volunteers can sign up for one to two sessions per week. There is also a monthly Wednesday dinner.
