Family Links Respite Program Receives PeyBack Foundation
Grant
 Family
Links Respite, a program of Frontier Health, received a $5,000 grant
from the PeyBack Foundation.
The
PeyBack Foundation was established in 1999 by Peyton
Manning to support programs that provide leadership and
growth opportunities for at-risk children in Indiana,
Tennessee, and Louisiana.
This
grant will fund the FLR Summer Camp Scholarship, as well
as special trips and activities for children with severe
emotional disturbances who receive Family Links
services. The activities provide a much-needed break for
parents and help the children served by Family Links to
develop positive behavior and social skills.
