County or Local Government Funds

Counties are often responsible for backing services like schools and hospitals. Youth Advocates Program receives funding from either the county or another local government. This means that mental health services for local residents might be offered for free or at a reduced rate. Call to find out.

Medicaid

All state Medicaid programs provide some mental health services. Youth Advocates Program accepts Medicaid, a joint federal and state program that helps with medical costs for some people with low incomes and limited resources. Medicaid programs vary from state to state.

Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) Insurance Coverage For Mental Health
