My Friend in RAL now serving Montgomery County

My Friend in RAL has recently begun offering services to support Montgomery County locals looking for residential assisted living in July. 

Two-minute impact: My Friend in RAL is owned and operated by local resident Pamela Clark. While the business was legally formed in February, the business recently started to offer its services in July.  The focal point of the business is to support families in the process of choosing a residential assisted living facility. 

“I provide complimentary placement and advisement services to North Houston area families; think of me as your friend in residential assisted living, right at your side to help you find safe, reputable, and well-suited living and care,” Clark said. 

Clark currently operates My Friend in RAL from her home. She has said a large reason for opening this service was due to her own experience of being an unexpected caregiver for her late father.
