Episode Synopsis
Kate Houck is the Executive Director of David's Refuge, a central New York state based organization that provides respite resources and support to families of children with complex needs and life-threatening illnesses. Kate is passionate about caring for the caregivers and shares with us just how David's Refuge came to be, how they support parents through respite services, events, virtual support, and networking opportunities. She emphasizes the need for respite and how it has such a profound impact and positive ripple effect on the caregivers who receive it by giving them the feeling of empowerment and allowing them to feel less alone in their journeys. Despite the challenges with Covid, David's Refuge is continually coming up with innovative ways of expanding beyond the state of New York to meet the growing needs of parents throughout all of the United States.
