Financial and NonProfit Supports
Providing your child with therapeutic services that are recommended for them can be difficult due to finances. Individualized therapy is an investment, and while we do work with insurance companies to help offset the cost of therapy services, we understand that financial limitations can be a barrier to your child receiving the best care. When financial and insurance limitations become an issue, several Kansas City organizations are here to help support your family.
The Aidan Project
The Aidan Project of KC connects families that do not qualify for state-funded early intervention with local clinics specializing in services such as Occupational, Speech, Physical, and Behavioral Therapy. The Aidan Project also provides financial assistance through scholarships to children ages five and under who are in need of early intervention. The Aidan Project advocates for children with developmental delays and provides resources for families that have not found the assistance they are seeking.
Above are videos of three Playabilities clients who received scholarships through the Aidan Project!
