Our team will reach out to parents/guardians prior to completing any billable medical or behavioral health services and consent will be obtained before services are provided. For this reason, we ask that you provide the requested insurance information.

If you do not have health insurance, we are happy to help your family apply for coverage. We also offer an affordable sliding-fee scale for both medical and behavioral health services.
