UPDATES FOR 2009 HELPING HAND GRANT RECIPIENTS AND FOR FAMILIES WAITING TO BE FUNDED

We are NOW processing the final payments on families' grants who had already been awarded 2009 Helping Hand Awads.

Pattison, Helping Hand Program Manager will take any calls or inquiries between October 19 and October 23, 2009 about existing grants or any issues that need to be resolved.

NAA-NEO will also send out final letters to grant recipient families by October 30, 2009.

New (waiting) grant recipients will also be announced by October 30, 2009. We will send an award letter with a modified timeline for using the funds (deadlines will be extended for sending in receipts for reimbursement).

While grant inquiries are welcome via phone or email, we can not respond until October 19, 2009 to them. If you had already placed an inquiry but have not heard back from us, you will be contacted by October 23, 2009.

NEW - 2010 Helping Hand Grants will not be announced until early 2010. Please check back with our website at www.autismnortheastohio.org or join our mailing list and group to be informed about the new grant announcement directly.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!

Sincerely,
