Parent and Guardian Experience:
“BRAVE has been very helpful to me and getting services for my son.
I am thankful for you guys.”
“I honestly don’t know what we would have done without the
BRAVE program. I had tried calling several providers and was told there
was a month's long wait. Our pediatrician referred me to the BRAVE program,
and they were in touch within 24 hours. They were able to get my son an
appointment with a counselor within weeks (so much better than the months-long
waitlists we were put on). He loves his counseling sessions, and his anxiety
is so much better. His emotional outbursts are getting better and our
whole family has benefited. Thank you!”
“The counselor that she is working with has been so amazing. The
communication has been ongoing and she calls to get our opinions on things
before she reacts or does anything. She has been very open with how A.
is and what she needs help with. Thankful that BRAVE found this counselor.”
