We are committed to offering up to 3 free Occupational Therapy sessions, which may include assessments and family or teacher coaching sessions, as an essential first step in empowering families and schools to understand the child’s unique needs and learn how to support the child's development. The exact number of sessions will depend on the individual situation. Occupational Therapy assessments can range from hundreds to even almost a thousand dollar, making them unaffordable for many parents seeking help for their child. We provide this for free as this is essential for children who need it. By waiving these fees, parents save up to $600 with our Pro Bono service. We offer this support because we believe it’s essential for families to access this critical first step. Families are not obligated to continue services with us after completing the Pro Bono School Occupational Therapy Support service, though many choose to due to the positive impact.

Our commitment to provide access to Occupational Therapy help.

Our mission is to make therapy accessible to all, bridging societal gaps so that no child is excluded due to financial limitations. We believe that quality therapy should be a resource available to every child. We are committed to creating equal opportunities, recognizing that early intervention through Occupational Therapy is vital for addressing developmental challenges and setting children on a path to success—in academics, social interactions, and beyond.

We provide free Occupational Therapy assessments as timely assessments can be transformative. These assessments provide families and educators with crucial insights, highlighting the foundational support each child needs to thrive. For instance, if a child is struggling to keep pace with schoolwork or engage meaningfully in classroom activities, a comprehensive OT assessment can uncover these learning hurdles. From the results of these assessments, the Occupational Therapist may advise schools on actionable recommendations, such as classroom accommodations that help the child stay focused during lessons and perform better in exams.

By prioritizing equal access to these services, we aim to dismantle barriers that can prevent children from reaching their potential. Our commitment is to empower families, support educators, and create a more just society where every child has the opportunity to succeed, regardless of their financial situation.
