Fellowship Place has been awarded a $3,000 grant award from the Petit Family Foundation for the Expressive Arts program, which utilizes artistic expression in various forms as a therapeutic tool. “Fellowship Place is very grateful for this support from the Petit Family Foundation” says Executive Director, Mary A. Guerrera, “we are honored to be chosen as a 2020 award recipient. The expressive arts program has been an important outlet and resource for our clients during the coronavirus crisis.”
