The organization collaborates with sub-grant partners including Emerald Development & Economic Network Inc., Case Western Reserve University, and the Ohio Department of Mental Health to expand service delivery. Frontline Service's grant-funded activities include trauma-informed care, integrated behavioral health services for individuals with severe mental illness, and comprehensive support for vulnerable populations to achieve and maintain permanent housing while minimizing trauma and dislocation associated with homelessness.
