FSSY News

 

Spring 2010

 

FSSY Home Health Care Training Program:

FSSY congratulates the March graduates of our free Home Health Care Training program.  Sixteen trainees, previously certified as Personal Care Aides, received their advanced New York State Department of Health certification as Home Health Aides.  We look forward to their joining the FSSY staff.

 

Kinship Support Program:

Under the provisions of our recent grant from the New York State Office of Children and Family Services, FSSY has expanded the services it offers to relative caregivers.  We now provide case management, legal services (especially for custody-related issues), family mediation, individual and family counseling; and training in parenting skills to strengthen the family unit.  Our Kinship Support Program continues to provide additional services, including the twice-monthly meetings of the Kinship Support Group.

 

The Westchester County Department of Social Services has increased the funding for the Grants to Grandparents, a program administered by FSSY.  The program provides targeted funds to meet the needs of children being raised by relative caregivers.

 

Access to Home Program:

Through a second grant from the New York State Housing Trust Fund Corporation’s Access to Home program, FSSY continues to provide accessibility-related modifications to the homes of disabled and low-income elderly residents of Westchester County.
