Private Services Fee Schedule 2014 Advisory Services Fees   While there are indeed fees associated with the work, we would like to share that our approach to case management and other services is one intended to minimize expense, not increase it. Whenever possible, we provide case coordination, leveraging free or affordable services from community based services instead of creating new expense with CFPD .  And while the fees may seem cumbersome when spelled out (our effort to remain transparent) when compared with other models, our overall fees remain at or below those of other nonprofits and certainly well below market rates.
