What to Expect:

Your family may be eligible to receive 8 – 12 one-hour therapy sessions at Down Syndrome Innovations on Thursdays (between 9 am – 5 pm).

ELIGIBILITY:

Families will be admitted on a first-come first-serve basis. 

FEES/INSURANCE:

  • Kansas Residents: If you are a Kansas resident, JCMHC is able to cover any remaining costs that insurance doesn’t cover—making therapy services completely free.
  • Missouri Residents: if you are a Missouri resident, then your family would be responsible for any remaining costs insurance doesn’t cover (Missouri Medicaid is not accepted, but private insurance is). Please note: JCMHC is likely out of network for Missouri residents, meaning the cost may be more than expected. Please consult a JCMHC intake coordinator and your insurance provider prior to enrolling in this service.
