 FAQs

  • At least 20% of children and youth under age 21 have a developmental, psychological, behavioral, or academic achievement problem requiring specialized services. Half of these children have multiple issues.

  • Beyond the anxiety of an unclear future, families often face the worry of a changed daily reality, overwhelming costs, and the complexity of navigating services. Very often, there is hopelessness—which is why Hope Haven exists.

  • Many families come to us after trying private schools, public schools, rehabilitation clinics, or other resources that did not fit. We take children who were told they cannot learn and show them they can. We also support children with mental and social challenges, helping them restore stability and strength.

  • VThrough a combination of educational and clinical programs, Hope Haven serves children with special needs—whether educational, emotional, or developmental. We provide a continuum of care to help individuals learn, self-regulate, and gain confidence from their first steps to their first job.

  • Parents often struggle with two main barriers: information and finances. Hope Haven acts as an advocate by educating families about their child’s best interests, developing personalized family plans, researching insurance and grants, and reducing fragmented services through multidisciplinary treatments.

  • We actively fundraise to ensure families with high deductibles and co-payments can still access services. We offer reduced and sliding-scale rates, and in cases of extreme need, scholarships that provide free care.

  • Yes. Our mission extends into the community. We especially serve low-income students with significant mental health needs. Often, helping one child improves the learning environment for the entire class.

  • There are many ways to give—Leadership Giving, Annual Giving, and Planned Giving. Your support allows us to continue offering high-quality services to those who need them most but can afford them least.
