What is UV Cares?

UVCares is a nonprofit organization that delivers mental health, suicide intervention, and addiction behavioral healthcare that focuses on inclusion for everyone while addressing barriers to 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 emotional health or  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.

We are guided by the vision of Eleanor Roosevelt.

“Caring comes from being able to put yourself in the position of the other person".
