A check cannot be sent to you before you actually attend or participate in the planned activity. You need to save your receipts and request reimbursement after the event. When you are approved for an award from the Family Involvement Fund an award letter will be sent to you with a claim form. Included in that award letter will be details on how you will be reimbursed from the Fund for your approved expenses. To receive an award from the Family Involvement Fund an applicant must be either Parents, foster parents, surrogate parents or family member of a child with a disability.
Family includes siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins.
The Indiana Governor's Planning Council for People with Disabilities also provides support through its Consumer Involvement Fund. Contact your local Director of Special Education and ask about support through local CSPD Funds.
