Children’s Respite Care Center Announces Plans for History Wall Unveiling

Children’s Respite Care Center (www.crccomaha.org) was founded in 1990 by two sisters who saw an unmet need in the community: Terri Fitzgerald, a teacher, and Christine Johnson, a nurse. Their philosophy was to care for children with special needs in such a way that enables growth, and first recognizes and preserves the dignity of each child. CRCC opened its doors to six children who were in need of specialized medical care and currently serves over 400 children.

Join Children’s Respite Care Center in celebrating their history, as well as the vision for their very bright future, on June 8th from 5-7pm at the Northwest Location, 2010 N. 88th Street.

Children’s Respite Care Center is a place where children thrive and parents find hope. CRCC helps children with special needs from birth to age 21 to reach their fullest potential by providing comprehensive educational, nursing and therapeutic care through behavioral health as well as day and overnight weekend programs. A team of licensed nurses, therapists, teachers and associates combine their skills and experience to assist children whose needs cannot be met in a traditional childcare setting.
