At Feinberg Health Care Solutions, the goal is to help individuals and families struggling with substance use and/or mental health concerns to recover, heal, and flourish. They are health navigators – working with families during what for most is filled with fear and confusion. They help provide support from crisis to treatment and ultimately developing and implementing a long-term recovery plan.
However, because their services are not currently reimbursed by health insurance and are paid for privately by clients, Feinberg Health Care Solutions knows that access to care is a challenge for many.
That is why they established The Feinberg Hope Foundation, a donor-advised fund with The Children’s Foundation. Dollars raised will be invested in this fund and granted into scholarships for adolescents and young adults in need of care, who would not otherwise have access to the services needed to get appropriate treatment due to financial barriers.
The foundation plans to establish a set of criteria to help decide how that money is awarded.
“It is heartbreaking for us when we are unable to help a family based on inability to pay,” said Steve Feldman, Chief Operating Officer at Feinberg Health Care Solutions. “We created a foundation to allow for treatment and recovery services for those who could otherwise not afford it. Everyone deserves a meaningful chance at a fulfilling life.”
The Feinberg Hope Foundation will launch in 2021 and provide intervention, coaching, case management, and treatment to a broader group of families and individuals in need of support. Learn more, here.
