FOCUS offers the Extra Special Saturday Respite
Program in six locations around metro Atlanta. Children with extra
special needs require extra experienced care that is often difficult
to find and expensive. Each location of Extra Special Saturday has caregivers
who are knowledgeable and experienced in caring for children with special
needs. Extra Special Saturday is a wonderful time for the children to
enjoy free play, music, and extra attention from FOCUS. Oh, and the
parents enjoy the break!!
For Respite dates and locations, see our
calendar.
