Barrier Buster Services
One of the newest additions to the Family Development program is the Barrier Buster Services. Families may face different barriers when trying to become self-sufficient but may not have the funds available to deal with the issue at hand. With Barrier buster funds Forest Manor may be able to assist with non-traditional expenses that may arise. Assistance through this program is limited and not every expense can be considered a barrier. Please contact Forest Manor for more information.
