For sponsors and foundations

Help a student get care.

Students without insurance often go without mental health care. Leap Counseling brings therapy into the school so that a lack of coverage, transportation, or time doesn’t decide who gets help.

The need

The obstacles are practical. So is the solution.

Insurance

Many families have no coverage, and without it there is no way to pay for weekly therapy.

Transportation

Getting to an office every week isn’t possible for every family.

Time

Parents can’t always leave work for intake appointments that can take over an hour.

Delay

Students who go through insurance-based intake can wait months for services.

The model

More than therapy at school.

Diana works where students already are. She speaks with parents by phone, sees students at school, and takes part in meetings with counselors, teachers, and social workers. When this model is funded, a referral can become care in days.
