The program provides constant care with on-site therapies provided by independent contractors in the following disciplines: speech, physical, occupational, psychological counseling and other therapies as needed. The shelter has a capacity of 16 children per night, and is licensed for children age 0-12, although the agency is unique in Palm Beach County as the only one certified to care for children aged 0-7. This is vital as the majority of PBC abuse victims are younger than 6.<\/p>\n<p>Children remain at the shelter for periods from one day to over a year, until it is safe for them to go home, live with relatives, or find a loving adoptive or foster home. Regardless of the length of stay, we provide each child with a Case Plan that addresses their individual, physical, emotional, social, and educational needs. A quarterly meal plan is developed by a registered dietician and followed by staff to ensure proper nutrition for all children. School aged children attend local public schools and our staff coordinates with the school to assure that each child\u2019s educational needs are being met. <\/p>\n<p>Art lessons and music therapy sessions are held weekly as a comprehensive and effective tool to reduce feelings of loss, stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and helplessness that are often associated with abuse and homelessness; and promote self-expression, interpersonal communication, and scholastic excellence. Children have tremendous resiliency; many children who have suffered abuse or abandonment become successful, healthy adults with relatively few problems. The more protective factors and resources that are available, the more likely these children will overcome adversities and obtain positive outcomes.\n<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $874,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): CFC Residential Fees &#8211; 500,000.00 Children\\&#8217;s Clothing\/Supply &#8211; 4,000.00 In Kind Donations &#8211; 10,000.00 Gala Income &#8211; 60,000.00 Unrestricted Donations &#8211; 200,000.00 Restricted Donations &#8211; 100,000.00<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: Ongoing\/One year<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Palm Beach County<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 0-12<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Ms.<br \/>\nContact First Name: Roxanne<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Jacobs<br \/>\nContact Title: Executive Director<br \/>\nContact Phone: 561-408-3060<br \/>\nContact Email: Roxanne.Jacobs@grandmasplacepb.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Grandma\u2019s Place, Inc.
