What is respite care?

Respite is a short period of rest or relief from something that may be difficult. The Legacy Club provides respite for caregivers and their loved ones, who need support as they navigate challenging seasons of life.

As an act of love and service to our Atlanta community, Peachtree Christian Church is opening The Legacy Club: A Community Respite for adults. Although we will primarily serve individuals with dementia, we also welcome individuals experiencing other cognitive challenges including Parkinson's, stroke, and special needs. The Legacy Club at Peachtree provides caregivers with free time to attend to their own needs while providing their loved ones with joy, enrichment, dignity, and purpose!

Join Rev. Katie Bond and her wonderful volunteers for days packed full of fun, companionship and service.

Respite runs from 10 am-2 pm on Tuesday, giving you 4 hours for yourself.

Respite provides caregivers with support including resources and relationships with other caregivers. Caregivers enjoy peace of mind knowing their loved ones are being cared for in a safe and kind environment.
