I understand I must get and stay at least two weeks ahead in my fee payments. Within the first two months I agree to make extra payments each week or a lump sum payment to achieve this.
______ I understand and agree that in the case of a returned check, I will pay the full amount due in cash, plus a $35.00 return check charge. Thereafter, checks will no longer be an accepted form of payment.

Upon discharge or voluntary vacancy, it will be the member’s responsibility to remove personal belongings from the premises. If personal effects have not been removed within 24 hours, they will be stored for thirty days. Thereafter, they will be donated or discarded at the option of the director.

AUTHORIZATION TO USE OR DISCLOSE PROTECTED IN INFORMATION

______ I have read, understand and agree to adhere to the Foundations in Recovery policies and guidelines. The resident manager and/or program director went over each section of the policies and guidelines very carefully with me and I have received my own copy of them. I am aware that my stay in a Foundations in Recovery home is completely contingent upon my enrollment status and participation in this recovery program.

I give the Foundations in Recovery program the absolute power to expel me from the program if deemed, by the director or the acting resident manager, to be in the best interest of the program and/or its members and I agree to leave the premises peacefully. Should I refuse to leave upon dismissal, the local police department will be called to help escort me off the property.
