Asking for financial help is hard.

The goal of using this scale at Modern Minds is to create a space where there are opportunities afforded to clients to be able to access services that are the best fit for them.

This scale is intended to be a map, inviting each person to take inventory of their financial resourcing. It is a way to challenge the standardized sliding fee scales based solely on income guidelines that may not reflect the complexity of what financial resources we have access to, the financial responsibilities that we have, and our current experiences and needs.

Please look at the scale descriptions below and self-identify where you are at. We can use this as a discussion point for financial conversations and availability of sliding fee services at Modern Minds.

After reviewing the scale descriptions using the green bottle graph, please communicate with Modern Minds regarding what resourcing level you self-identify as engaging in services at:

□ Actual Cost of Services        □ Lower Cost of Services        □ Lowest Cost of Services
