Partnership Prospectus
The National Lifespan Respite Conference (NLRC), hosted by the ARCH National Respite Network and Resource Center (ARCH), and Alabama Lifespan Respite - a program of UCP Huntsville - will be held at the Westin Huntsville in Huntsville, AL, on April 1-3, 2025.
The theme for the conference, RAISE and Engage – Launch Respite Now!, is not only a nod to the incredible history of the space industry in Huntsville, also known as Rocket City USA, but is also a call to action. RAISE and Engage challenges all to learn more about the Research, Advocacy, Innovation, Services and Supports, and Education efforts that connect respite programs and public and private initiatives to better support family caregivers.
The 2025 conference builds upon the 2022 release of the National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers by the Administration for Community Living. The report includes nearly 500 actions that can be adopted at every level of government and across the public and private sectors, including actions that each of us can take, to advance supports to strengthen the nation’s more than 53 million family caregivers.
Previous National Lifespan Respite Conferences have been very successful, and we expect no less from the 2025 conference in Huntsville! The conference will offer valuable, up-to-date information for families, professionals and interested agencies and organizations on respite and caregiver supports. Keynote speakers and breakout sessions will offer a multitude of opportunities to Launch Respite Now!
