Hello,

Lifepaths System (Collin County's MHMR) has some

In Home Family Support Grant (IHFS) money to spend before the end of their

fiscal year on August 31st.

If you live in Collin County and have a child diagnosed with MR or Autism

contact :

Fern Gimenez, Quality Improvement Program Administrator

LifePath Systems

Apply for IHFS grant (up to $2400.00 per year) this grant is based on family

income, but the sliding scale is very forgiving, it takes # of family members

into account as well as medical expenses. The grant can be spent on respite, in

home life skills training, parks and rec. programs, therapies during the summer

when school is out, medical expenses that insurance is not covering, many other

things.

Lifepath is also taking application for IHFS grant for fiscal year 2009.

Thanks,

Nagla

No, I don't but I would encourage you to contact them and apply for,

or get on the waiting lists for IHFS and the medicaid waiver program

(HCS)if your child is not on these lists yet.
