(May 8, 2007) Since retooling the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization last fall, the Foundation's trustees have already paved the way for three students to continue their stay through to completion at their emotional growth schools. Tha Friends of Families With Children in Crises was founded in 1998 and has helped dozens of families throughout the country continue their children's enrollment at therapeutic schools. Recently there have been several new developments in the Foundation. With the collaboration, compassion, and support of Boulder Creek Academy (Idaho), Oakley School (Utah) and New Leaf Acedemy (North Carolina), these families will be able to experience the accomplishment of their child's completion at their respective schools.
Therapeutic/emotional growth schools across the country are encouraged to contact the Foundation's representatives to find out how to qualify as a participating school for Foundation support.
"We are so excited to be helping families again," said Joel Horowitz, Foundation trustee. "We know the value of program completion and hope to assist more families-in-need experience the joy we felt when our children completed their journey through emotional growth schools."
The Foundation is working to continue raising funds so that additional families can be equally assisted. While it's website is under development, donation are welcome, and brochures and information can be received by contacting the Foundation's representatives at 951-317-3151, or b.elliott@friendsoffamilies.org.
