Private Pay Services of Friendship Community

Use P/FDS (Person and Family Directed Support waiver funds) or personal funds to cover fees.

Private Pay SevicesThe majority of the individuals of Friendship Community are in programs financed by contracts with the Lancaster County Department of Mental Health/Mental Retardation. 

However, 40% of the people served are in residential programs funded by private funds including donations. 

Effective in 2007, Friendship Community is able to provide additional services through the Private Pay Programs outlined below. 

Fees are to cover the cost of the individual’s care and will not displace people currently receiving services nor will it replace Friendship Community’s mission to serve those on the county’s PUNS list (Prioritization of Urgency of Need).

Programs can be paid with private funding, P/FDS (Person and Family Directed Support waiver funds), personal funds or a combination of these sources to cover fees.
