Creating Fun, Friendship & Freedom: Rize Support’s Respite Programs for Young Adults

At Rize Support, we believe that young adults living with a disability deserve more than just care—they deserve joy, purpose, and connection. That’s why we’ve created a range of respite programs that aren’t just about taking a break—they’re about living life to the fullest.

Our Short-Term Accommodation (STA) offerings give young adults the opportunity to:

• Experience overnight stays or weekends away

• Participate in group activities tailored to their interests

• Form friendships and build social skills

• Gain independence and confidence in a safe and supportive environment

Every STA program is designed with age-appropriate fun and with personal growth in mind. From group trips to the park, to sports games, to musicals or local events our team ensures every experience feels special.

We work closely with participants and families to understand their individual goals, and we pair them with like-minded peers to create a comfortable, welcoming environment. Our support workers are trained to balance supervision with encouragement—empowering participants to try new things while ensuring they feel supported every step of the way.

Participants leave our STA programs feeling more confident, connected, and excited for what’s next. For many, it becomes a highlight of their week or month—and for us, that’s the ultimate success
