The Family Support Council’s Financial Assistance Program
Did you know there is financial assistance available through The Moore Center Family Support Council for services and items that will help improve the quality of life for individuals with developmental disabilities or Acquired Brain Disorder? The Family Support Council works closely with The Moore Center’s Family Support Services staff to help assess the needs and determine how best to support families. A Moore Center client family is eligible to request assistance if a person with a disability lives at home with a family member, or the individual resides independently and receives support from the family.
