About Anderson Cherokee Community Enrichment Services ACCESS

At ACCESS, we provide services to children and adults living with mental illness. Living with a mental illness can seem to be an immovable obstacle to the person diagnosed, as well as to their family and friends. The change brought on by the illness might be slow or sudden and the destructive potential is always present. ACCESS is here to help facilitate recovery and provide support services to individuals and their loved ones.

Charges for services
We will not deny you services. Our charge for services is based on your ability to pay. The way we determine your ability to pay is fair and the same for everyone.

To determine your ability to pay for services, we need information regarding:
- Your income
- Any extraordinary expenses (for example, major medical expenses)
- Child care expenses, major property loss or damage
- The number of people in your family

Your responsibility of payment
Your income (minus any extraordinary expenses) and the number of people in your family will be applied to a fee schedule to get your maximum monthly fee. You will receive the form used to determine your maximum monthly fee. If your maximum monthly fee is more than zero, you will receive a bill for services. You have a choice to pay more than your maximum monthly fee.
