Revised 10/24/13 PAGE 15 / PROGRAM APPLICATION FINANCIAL FORM – 130.1

Financial Responsibilities of Applicant/Student

1. Physical examination, including blood tests, before entrance into Teen Challenge of the Mid-South Program, hereafter

referred to as Teen Challenge for the purpose of this document. (Required)

2. Return fare (cash) for return home from Teen Challenge provided upon entrance into the Program. (Required)

3. Provide student account money: Cash or money order ONLY , Cannot exceed $30.00. Money orders are to be made payable to the student and are Non Refundable. (Required)

4. Accept responsibility for payment of any of the following (if they are necessary). (Required)

* Medical bills and dental bills * Eye examinations, glasses, clothing and shoes * Psychological testing with professional consultant, if indicated

5. The cost for a secular rehabilitation program exceeds $10,000 for a 28-day program. Many are even higher. The cost

to care for a student in the Teen Challenge of the Mid-South program is approximately $3,000.00 per month. Due to the extended recession and the loss of donation income (foundations, church, corporate and individual), we have

had to make a very difficult decision. As you noted when you read the STUDENT APPLICATION SUPPORT POLICY , we are now requiring the family to partner with us to provide support for the loved one they are helping gain entrance into our program.

As stated in the above policy, we (Teen Challenge) will do our part to raise 90% of the cost to care for the student. We

are asking the family to commit to the remaining 10% of the cost as a “minimum” support level. This can be done by using the same methods that we do, contacting family, friends and your church family to give towards this support. While we do receive food stamp subsidies for some (not all) students, it in no way covers the cost to feed our residents for a month.

After the application is received, the $50.00 (non-refundable) application fee and the initial $500.00 processing fee

(non-refundable) paid, the family will be required to raise/donate a minimum level of support of $250.00 per month. This is a joint effort between our ministry and your family network to see a life changed. We can no longer provide the program to those who feel no need to be a part of the process. I believe that you feel as we do, your loved one’s life is worth your investment. The process will work like this:

A. $50.00 application fee (paid when application is submitted) B. $500.00 non-refundable processing fee paid prior to entrance into the program C. Minimum monthly support level of $250.00 per month

For those who claim not to be able to pay support, you must verify your inability to pay by providing copies of your most recent tax returns, most recent pay stubs for the past three (3) pay periods, family budget (list of expenses and any other information to document your inability to contribute. We will also require a letter from your Pastor confirming your financial status. Remember, you have your entire family and church family network to raise the minimum level of support. If the applicant receives SSI (Social Security) or other Government benefits (disability, pension, etc.), the Social Security Administration has designated that 30% of your benefit must be applied to room and board. While enrolled in the program, you will be required to pay 30% to Teen Challenge for your housing. This amount can be applied to the monthly fee. Automatic bank payment is preferred.

Revised 10/24/13 PAGE 16 / PROGRAM APPLICATION FINANCIAL FORM – 130.1

NOTE: Failure of the family to follow through on their part of the agreement (getting 60 days behind in support) will result in the release of the student from the program. As we promise to keep our part of the agreement, the family needs to do the same. Failure to do so would constitute a breach of the agreement.
