*The form will be reviewed, membership will be verified, and application will be approved by a committee. Due to limited funding, this program will only last until current grant funding runs out, and therefore isn’t a guarantee. Likewise, being a pilot program, upon initial data collection from pilot year, we reserve the right to make adjustments to the program accordingly.
