Bow Place

Operated by DDRC, Bow Place Respite Home provides relief for both children and adults who:

  • have a developmental disability;
  • are non-ambulatory or require a significant level of personal care;
  • are medically stable;
  • require assistance to meet self-care needs; and
  • do not require one-to-one support.

Bow Place Respite Home Provides

  • relief for parents, allowing them to take a holiday, respond to emergencies, or invest time in themselves;
  • an opportunity for guests with developmental disabilities to enhance their social skills, build friendships, and participate in recreational activities; and
  • a focus on guests' emotional and physical care.
