Many youth face one or more of the following barriers to accessing care - whether those barriers be financial, social, or both. Between expensive co-pays, long waitlist, and confusing healthcare systems, the truth of the matter is, accessing care isn't always easy. We know that different barriers can exist from one individual to the next - and at Second Wind Fund, we're committed to evaluating these unique needs, helping families navigate the provider selection process, and covering the cost of 12 - 20 sessions of therapy when needed.
