Sharing Hands A Respite Experience

🖤🤟❤️ SHARE SHOUT-OUT 🖤🫶❤️ Last night's Friday Night Respite and --- all those in October --- have been sponsored by SM Energy Company, donating the Friday Night Respite Meals AND their amazing volunteers! These donations allow for our staff and volunteers to enjoy a meal during their hours of respite service and have additional support when engaging with the children! 🫶 Thank you to our amazing community partners at SM Energy Company for making this possible! You've made a difference and we cannot tell you how much this helps our families! ❤️ 👉About Respite: Respite Night is a night provided to enrolled SHARE families during which they are able to drop off their children at a specified location from 6-10 PM under the care and supervision of trained staff, volunteers and a Registered Nurse. During this time, parents are encouraged to use these hours of reprieve as a way to unwind, have a momentary break, and reconnect however they see fit. Most families along the special needs path seldom secure a babysitter or childcare in order to go on date nights, enjoy a break, or even grocery shop; SHARE understands how crucial this break is and commits to offer respite monthly and on assigned dates. 👉FMI on Sharing Hands A Respite Experience (SHARE) and what we do, visit: www.sharewtx.org 📷: Traci Hopper - SHARE Anna Casas - SHARE Heather Roberts - SM Energy Monica Conley - SM Energy Nathan Moore - SM Energy #SHARE #RespiteNight #Partners #SMEnergy #CommunitySupport #Support
