The Halcyon House Wellness Access Initiative is a community funded program to help offset the costs of our services for the people who need them the most. Selection for the program is based on financial need, physical need, treatment goals, and recommended individualized treatment plan from our staff. We believe that the wellness services we provide are beneficial and even a potentially necessary part of healing and well-being. It is our hope that this wellness subsidy initiative will provide an avenue for access to our services for people who would otherwise not have the resources to afford them.

Selection Process

Applicants will fill out an online application to collect information about financial need, physical limitations/impairments and how their individual situation interferes with daily life.  They will also have at least one session or consultation with one (or more) of the Halcyon Wellness Team, who will report on their need for services, create a treatment plan that includes goals, frequency, services, and durations. This de-identified information will be provided to the selection committee.

The selection committee will be composed of three to five individuals with at least one member-owner from Halcyon House. We ideally would like the majority of this panel to be composed of independent community members and donors. The member-owner from Halcyon House is a liaison between the selection committee and the cooperative, and is responsible for making sure all identifying information about applicants is removed and all information available for the committee to access is HIPAA compliant.  

The Selection Committee will use this information and these tiers to decide the amount subsidized:

Tiers of subsidies:

Tier 1 is our highest support level. 90% of the cost of treatment is covered. The financial guidelines are up to 150% of the Federal Poverty Level ($48,225 for a family of 4).

Tier 2—70% of treatment(s) covered with financial guidelines of up to 175% of FPL.  

Tier 3—50% of treatment(s) covered with financial guidelines of up to 200% of FPL. 

Tier 4—30% of treatment(s) covered with financial guidelines of up to 225% of FPL. 

Tier 5—10% of treatment(s) covered with financial guidelines of up to 250% of FPL.
