Entering our tenth year, The Michael Carter Lisnow Respite Center is a place that provides emotional and physical support for families with children with disabilities.

Located in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, the center has served over 130 families and couldn’t have done it without the support of many and the inspiration given to us by the life and memory of Michael Carter Lisnow.

Your generosity has helped many families. Michael’s story reflects many of the same things experienced by our families. We ask that you take a moment to read some of the stories from families you have touched, view our efforts through images in our photo gallery, learn about the programs we have available, and understand how many see the house as Michael’s legacy but his true legacy is the wisdom he gave us and the ability to know how to help when others can’t.
