Therapy Access Program
Affordable Occupational Therapy for Eligible Farm & Forest School Families
Welcome to our Therapy Access Program: We believe every child deserves access to quality occupational therapy services. Our Therapy Access Program is designed specifically for eligible Farm & Forest School families, offering affordable OT services through a flexible waitlist system that connects families with last-minute appointment slots.
Why We Created This Program: Therapy services can be expensive, and insurance often provides limited coverage. Meanwhile, the needs in our community are high - many families need support but face financial barriers. This program was designed to bridge that gap, making Everbloom services more equitable and accessible for all.
How It Works: When therapist appointments become available due to last minute cancellations, families on our waitlist are notified first. This means your child can access professional OT services at a significantly reduced rate, with the convenience of being already on-site at Farm & Forest School.
How to Join:
-
Ensure your family meets the program criteria (see below)
-
Schedule a one-hour virtual meeting with our occupational therapist to discuss your child’s needs and therapy goals
-
Once approved, you’ll be added to the waitlist for your child’s Farm & Forest School day
-
When appointments become available, you’ll receive a text or email through our electronic messaging system to claim the spot.
Advance Notice: Text or email notifications for next-day or future appointments
Same-Day Openings: Communication during morning drop-off
How it works:
Appointment opens: therapist has a cancellation on your waitlist day.
You’re notified: receive text/email or in-person communication to claim the available slot.
