All of our programs are funded through federal, state, and local community foundation and corporation grants. In addition, in-kind services are provided through partnerships throughout the county, and in particular with the Winston-Salem Forsyth County Schools. Campaign funds continually bridge the gap between these grants and in-kind services and the additional dollars needed in order to ensure that we can provide quality services to all who need them. In essence, every participant in a Community Outreach Services program is a recipient of Partner funding.
Our community’s support is greatly appreciated!
