Respite Care at The Production Farm
The Production Farm's facility and grounds is currently in the process of renovating a respite home that will service foster youth through Advocates for Healthy Transitional Living outside of Green Bay Wisconsin. The completed respite home will have nine bedrooms, two kitchens, a dining room, music room/library, game recreation/computer room, and large open spaces for programming. The home is designed to provide foster youth in our community with a safe and reliable place for respite by providing these youth with creative outlets and dependable care with licensed care-providers.
What is Respite Care?
Respite care refers to one foster family caring for another family’s foster children for a short amount of time. This allows for the children’s original foster family to have a break. It also can provide a challenging opportunity for foster children to have an added degree of independence and allow them to experience relationships with people outside their customary environment.
Strategic community partnerships are currently being established along with the necessary capital to renovate our “forever farm”. A forever farm is a place of permanence that allows teens to feel they have a safe and secure location that will not go away even upon exiting the foster care system.
