The FRC serves two main functions.  First, FRC staff meet weekly to discuss students and families in crisis.  They then problem solve collaboratively in an attempt to help the students and/or family in need.  This could include coordination of services, food, clothing, shelter, emotional support, etc.

The other main function of the FRC is to develop programming designed to address a school/community need.
