Have you ever needed a break, but couldn’t find a temporary care giver?  Would you like to be first in line to receive free sporting event tickets, movie passes and give-a-ways?

The Parent-to-Parent network is temporary relief system for caregivers and families who are caring for foster and adoptive children.  The Network is also a group of families who receive first priority on special gifts and events!

The Network is not part of the State of Missouri's paid respite care program  Participants in the Parent-to-Parent Network must be licensed foster or adoptive parents, and have a current background check.

Once you are approved you will have access to an online network registry included on our website! You will be able to use your personalized id and password to view the provider database.  The database will be updated periodically as more parents are added to the registry!

For further information, please contact Nicki Steinhoff, Director of Training and Community Support.
