The overall goal of this fellowship project was to assess the state of youth respite care in Oregon and make recommendations for overcoming barriers to respite service access for youth. The System of Care Advisory Council (SOCAC) oversaw the research and recommendation development while also heavily relying on input from youth and family partners. Ultimately, this project will help the SOCAC to advocate for youth respite services to legislators and state agencies.
