mental health counseling to Boundary County
victims of domestic violence or sexual assault.

calls.
Community Coalition for Families was granted
$12,000 to provide temporary or permanent
housing needs, including motels, rental
assistance and move-in costs to people in both
counties with behavioral health issues.
Jannus, Inc., was awarded $3,885 to provide an
eight-week series of parenting classes at Blue
Haven, a transitional housing facility in Bonner
County, for parents of children who are striving
