Jill’s House Respite Programs

Jill’s House Respite Programs offers kids a mix of activities that include pet therapy, arts and crafts, gym time with a bounce house, and music therapy. Children also have access to sensory rooms, indoor and outdoor play areas, a wheelchair accessible pool, educational show and tells, and community meals during their stays.

• Ages: 6–18 years old
• Schedule: Kids aged 6–18 can attend fun weekend stays and summer day camps at the Tysons location, with regular 24–48 hour overnight stays offered throughout the year.

Jill’s House is a Christian nonprofit organization that loves and serves families of kids with profound intellectual disabilities through short-term, overnight respite care and holistic family support services. Direct Support Professionals are trained in therapeutic options to provide basic care, help with activities of daily living, and activity guidance in a safe, nurturing environment, and Nursing Staff are trained to attend to children’s medical needs in a professional and safe way. Volunteers play a significant role in the program and contribute in a number of ways. Families describe their experiences with Jill’s House in several ways, including feeling that staff understand their children’s needs, noticing that nonverbal children can be hard to get to know, and seeing their children leave tired after active stays and sometimes not wanting to go home right away.
