Hours of Therapy
A special needs child could receive multiple hours of therapy each day across various disciplines and these therapies are crucial to his/her success.
Costly Therapy
Therapies can cost $100s and they are not always covered by insurance, leaving the financial burden on the families.
4x Cost
The cost of raising a special needs child can be quadruple that of a typical child.
Financial Burden
A recent national U.S. study reported that 40% of families of children with special health care needs experience a financial burden due to their child's condition.
Depression & Anxiety
Studies show that parents of special needs children experience depression and anxiety far more often than other parents, and these mental health challenges can contribute to physical health problems.
