Donations:
Your donations are greatly appreciated.
Funds are used to pay for much needed client services that our grants don't cover. In most cases, since much of our administration expenses are paid by other funding sources, your donation can be used almost entirely to pay for client services.
Checks can be made out to CCMC. If you wish, you can make a notation to indicate which program you would like your gift to go towards.
Contacts (For More Information):
Interested consumers should contact their Regional Center Care Manager for an introduction to the program.
