About Fayette FRN

Our Mission

The Fayette County Family Resource Network’s (FRN) mission is to strengthen individuals, families, and communities through education, mobilization, resource development, inter-agency coordination, strategic planning, needs assessments, and ongoing evaluation of services.

Our Work

As a network of community members and agencies providing services, the FRN brings opportunities for everyone to come together in monthly meetings. Outside of monthly meetings, we seek funding to support community projects, assist education and prevention programs, and maintain network communication.

Fiscal Agent Requests

The FRN provides fiscal agent services to those organizations, programs or entities that would need a 501(c)3 status when applying for grant or other funding opportunities. The FRN Board will review all applications at their quarterly Board meetings. The FRN does ask for a 10% administrative fee if the grant/funding source allows it.
Questions on the applications or the review process can be directed to Diane Callison.
