In-Home Residential Support (Respite) If you are a family member caring for a child or adult with an intellectual or developmental disability, St. Louis Arc’s ARCH program (Assistance with Residential Care in the Home) can give you the extra support you need. ARCH, also referred to as respite”, reimburses primary caregivers at a standard rate for short-term relief services they receive either in their own home, within the community, or in the home of a care provider. The ARCH program is available only to families living in St. Louis County or St. Louis City at this time. As a registered ARCH participant, you’ll qualify for a specified number of in home support hours annually—when you decide to use them is up to you. You can choose anyone whom you feel is qualified to be a care provider, as long as he or she does not live in your home, is not a parent or stepparent of the person who needs care, and is 18 or older. If you do not already have someone to provide short-term care, registered families can log into the ARCH community and access our care provider resources to find potential caregivers in your area. For additional information about what In-Home Residential Support is, please watch our Q & A About the Respite Program .
