Mission and programs · 2025

• THE STARTUP RESPITE GRANT PROGRAM (STARTUP) PROVIDES FUNDING FOR NEW RESPITE PROGRAMS OR BUSINESSES IN WISCONSIN. FUNDS CAN BE USED FOR START-UP PROGRAM COSTS, SUCH AS FACILITY, INSURANCE, PAYROLL, ACCOUNTING, LICENSING, EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES, AND STAFF EDUCATION. TO QUALIFY FOR THIS GRANT, YOU MUST MEET ONE OF THESE TWO REQUIREMENTS: 1.) YOU ARE STARTING A BRAND-NEW RESPITE CARE PROGRAM OR BUSINESS, OR 2.) YOU ARE GROWING AN EXISTING BUSINESS BY ADDING A NEW RESPITE PROGRAM OR LOCATION. ALSO, YOU MUST MEET BOTH OF THESE: 1.) YOUR PROGRAM OR BUSINESS MUST PROVIDE HANDS-ON RESPITE CARE IN WISCONSIN, AND 2.) AT LEAST ONE TEAM MEMBER MUST HAVE COMPLETED THE FREE BRINGING RESPITE TO YOUR COMMUNITY (BRYC) WORKSHOP THAT TAKES 4-7 HOURS TO COMPLETE AND RESULTS WITH THE BASIC INFO NEEDED FOR A BUSINESS AND OPERATIONAL PLAN. IN 2025, 85 APPLICANTS APPLIED FOR STARTUP GRANT FUNDS, ONLY 6 WERE FUNDED. THESE 6 NEW OR EXPANDING RESPITE SERVICE PROVIDER BUSINESSES RECEIVED A CUMULATIVE OF $147,000, MANY OF WHOM ARE JUST STARTING OUT. 192 CLIENTS HAD ACCESS TO NEW RESPITE SERVICES FOR A TOTAL OF 21,571 HOURS. WE EXPECT THESE NUMBERS TO INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY AS MANY OF THESE BUSINESSES ARE IN EARLY STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT.

• HEALTHY MEALS / HEALTHY MINDS (HMHM): IN ADDITION TO CAREGIVING RESPONSIBILITIES, FAMILY CAREGIVERS OFTEN JUGGLE EMPLOYMENT, FAMILY OBLIGATIONS, COOKING, SHOPPING, AND OTHER HOUSEHOLD DUTIES. THESE RESPONSIBILITIES CAN LEAVE LITTLE TIME FOR CAREGIVERS TO FOCUS ON THEIR OWN HEALTH AND WELL-BEING. OUR HEALTHY MEALS, HEALTHY MINDS GRANT PROGRAM SUPPORTS FAMILY CAREGIVERS BY PROVIDING $250 FOR SERVICES THAT PROMOTE MENTAL HEALTH, WELLNESS, AND ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS MEALS THROUGH MEAL KITS, HELPING CAREGIVERS REDUCE STRESS, IMPROVE SELF-CARE, AND MAINTAIN THEIR ABILITY TO CONTINUE PROVIDING CARE FOR THEIR LOVED ONES.

• IN 2025 WE SERVED 9 GROUP PROGRAMS WITH $39,188 VIA OUR GRGP PROGRAM. A COMMON CHALLENGE FOR FAMILY CAREGIVERS WHEN ATTENDING CAREGIVER-FOCUSED EVENTS IS THE LACK OF RESPITE CARE. THE GROUP RESPITE GRANT PROGRAM (GRGP) FUNDS AGENCIES AND ORGANIZATIONS TO HIRE RESPITE CARE PROVIDERS FOR ON-SITE CARE DURING THESE EVENTS. EVENTS SUPPORTED BY THE GRGP MAY INCLUDE SUPPORT GROUPS, CLASSES, CONFERENCES, OR OTHER CAREGIVER-RELATED ACTIVITIES. WHILE CAREGIVERS PARTICIPATE, CARE RECIPIENTS CAN ENGAGE IN MEANINGFUL ACTIVITIES, ALLOWING CAREGIVERS THE TIME TO RECHARGE, SEEK SUPPORT, AND GAIN VALUABLE EDUCATION OR RECREATION. THIS GRANT CAN FUND ONE-TIME EVENTS AND RECURRING PROGRAMS, SUCH AS SUPPORT GROUPS. ELIGIBILITY IS NOT RESTRICTED TO NON-PROFIT OR 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATIONS, MAKING IT ACCESSIBLE TO A WIDE RANGE OF AGENCIES AND GROUPS.
