Financial information KidsPeace’s programs and operations are supported by several distinct and essential funding sources.

Fee-for-service payment and reimbursement for KidsPeace programs, meanwhile, comes from a variety of entities: • Public funding, which comes from county and local programs such as Children and Youth, Social Services, school districts and probation offices. These agencies typically review the individual case and initiate the referral process to a KidsPeace program. • Medicaid funding is provided by states to residents who qualify for assistance in paying for programs such as those provided by KidsPeace. To learn if you qualify for Medicaid, contact your local social services agency. • Private commercial insurance often covers some level of the cost of the services provided at KidsPeace. The amount of the program fees paid for by private insurance varies according to the specific coverage that the individual has. Contact your employer or insurance provider to find out.
