ACCESSIBLE AND AFFORDABLE
What is UVCares and what guides us in our mission?
What we do
What is UV Cares?
UVCares is a nonprofit organization that delivers behavioral healthcare that focuses on inclusion for everyone while addressing barriers to behavioral healthcare that include addressing racial disparities, socioeconomic disparities, access, and affordability.
How it's done.
We accomplish our mission by the execution of our strong belief that every human being has a right to experience and feel dignity at all times throughout their life.
We tackle the issues head-on and with a no-nonsense approach by ensuring through all of our actions that all persons regardless of race, color, national origin, ethnicity, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, sexual identity, pregnancy status, or socioeconomic status have a basic right to healthcare that also includes mental health, suicide intervention, and addiction treatment.
For access, we utilize Telehealth to ensure that we meet everyone where they are at regardless of their geographical location. Additionally, patients enjoy the access, convenience, and the privacy that Telehealth affords when they are feeling most vulnerable.
We address the affordability barrier by seeking and utilizing grants to financially support access to care for those in need.
UVCares supports evidence-based methods of treatment, and firmly believes in the importance, parity, and interrelation of physical and behavioral health and that everyone deserves to be happy and healthy.
Our inspiration
We are guided by the vision of Eleanor Roosevelt.
“Caring comes from being able to put yourself in the position of the other person".
Additionally,
“Where do human rights begin? In small places, close to home – so close that they cannot be seen on any maps. Yet, they are the world of the individual person.
Without concerned citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world. The world of the future is in our making. Tomorrow is now.”
CONNECTING WITH EASE AND CONVENIENCE
Why telehealth can help accomplish our goals?
Secure
We use secure technology to keep your personal health information private. All counseling sessions and client records are subject to the same strict HIPAA standards as in-person sessions.
Covered
Research shows that telehealth services are as effective as in-person appointments when it comes to treating mental illness. Some people find that telehealth is more helpful because they are able to attend more convenient appointments while in the comfort of privacy.
