[QUOTE="nerfherder, post: 596749, member: 15907"] Now, I'm curious. Here in the states we have the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program, which is as far as I know a charitable program and not a state or federal program. It sounds like that's the sort of thing you'd want for NT/mildly affected kids without major issues, at the very least lacking the appropriate parent or role model in their lives. (I don't know their policy with kids whose mother or father figure is ill or otherwise unable to be involved.) How much of the agency's "respite parenting" services that aren't a full-time thing are manageable by BB/BS? Am I completely missing the idea here? Possible that I am... :) [/QUOTE]
