When the new Congress convened, it passed a continuing resolution for funding at last year's levels, and stripped away a Federal Appropriation for $150,000 to fund music therapy and provide additional support for our Respite Centers. The loss of the expected (and badly needed) $150,000, plus the increased operating costs of transportation, utilities and food have left us with a $300,000 funding gap for 2007.
SAAA makes an enormous difference in so many people's lives, but we can't do it without your help. Thanks for your support in the coming year! Click on one of the buttons on the left for more information. If you don't see what you are looking for, contact SAAA at:
