Rainbow Respite is a program offering caregivers of the elderly a period of time to relax and be free of the mental and physical stress which results from the responsibility of caring for a family member, spouse or friend.  Held each Wednesday from 9:30 am to 3 pm in the Fellowship Hall, the program is run by the Council on Aging of Volusia County with volunteers from Coronado.

To qulaify for the program, the client must be at least 60 years old and be able to self-feed, self-toilet, self medicate, and non-abusive and non-disruptive.  There is a nominal hourly fee charged for the service.

If you are interested in volunteering, please call 428-6252, ext 15.
