Charity Care

Our Charity Care Commitment

The Harris Center is committed to providing care to persons who have behavioral healthcare needs and are uninsured, underinsured, or otherwise unable to pay, based on their individual financial situation. We strive to ensure that the financial capacity of those we serve that need behavioral health care does not prevent them seeking or receiving quality care. No one will be denied access to services due to inability to pay. There is a discounted/sliding fee schedule available based on family size and income.
