Creating safe and accepting environments by providing respite care for children with special needs and their siblings

Night Lights Inc is a 501c3 nonprofit that provides respite care for children ages 1 month to 13 years old who have special needs and their neuro-typical siblings, helping parents or caregivers have time to refresh, regroup, and take care of themselves.

Straight From The Heart: What Families Say About Night Lights

Night Lights is the highlight of my kids month! It has given my husband & I time to reconnect making us better parents!
"I’m not sure who Night Lights helps the most – us as parents, our special needs kiddo, the siblings, or the volunteers” – Jenny
"My daughter asked if her volunteer could come live with us! Great experience!"
"It's a great program. A lot of people don't know about it"
"Night Lights provides an inclusive and positive atmosphere where my kids can have fun and be safe away from home. As a parent, I never have to worry about their well being, they are taken care of so well."
"My husband and I have three children with different special needs. Most of the time, life feels like a constant juggle, and finding care we trust is nearly impossible. Night Lights gives us something priceless: time to recharge and reconnect as a couple. And our kids look forward to it all month—it’s their special night too."
"Raising my grandchildren at this stage of life is both a joy and a challenge. I often feel isolated, carrying responsibilities I never expected to carry again. Night Lights gives me a community where I feel supported and seen. My grandkids come home happy and loved, and I come home feeling a little less alone."
"As a single mom, I rarely get a break. Most people don’t realize how hard it is to find someone who understands my child’s needs and who I can truly trust. Night Lights has been a lifeline for us. Knowing my child is safe and cared for by people who ‘get it’ gives me peace of mind—and a few hours to just breathe. It makes me a better mom."
"My daughter’s medical needs mean that leaving her with someone else is almost never an option. I carry the weight of constant vigilance, 24/7. Night Lights is the one place I can let go of that for a few hours. The staff and volunteers are trained, attentive, and loving. It’s not just a break—it’s the gift of being able to rest without worry."
