Component of an Established Course
There may be a variety of courses that already exist on campus, in education, psychology, or disability studies for example, that could be enriched by an experiential component. If your course content already provides students with sufficient background for this experience, limited additional training may be necessary. You could add the expectation for weekly, in-home respite (provided that you are granting additional credit or offsetting other time expectations) or you could schedule monthly or bi-monthly drop-in respite groups on your campus or in your community. This approach may require less time from the instructor and yield greater student enrollment.
