In Quebec, respite needs of families with a child with intellectual disabilities (ID) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) remain numerous and persistent. With this in mind, a research committee in Quebec City developed OASIS+, a program that offers a range of support services at home or in the community and that relies on the commitment of trained occupational therapy and social work university students. The aim of this paper is to present data from phone interviews with representatives of community organizations of different regions of the province of Quebec (Canada) who have contributed to the elaboration of this kind of services. The results, derived from a thematic content analysis, helped to guide the development of OASIS +. In conclusion, it seems that the involvement of trained students represents an effective strategy for fostering the well-being of families.
