About Us Counseling family therapy Boise

 As part of Human Support’s mission, we aim to bring hope and stability to all persons regardless of background or experience. It is the policy of Human Supports of Idaho, Inc. to provide essential behavioral health services regardless of the participant’s ability to pay. 

For participants who are uninsured or underinsured, we can provide pro bono or sliding scale fee services. Human Supports of Idaho, Inc. will base program eligibility on a person’s ability to pay and will not discriminate on the basis of age, gender, race, sexual orientation, creed, religion, disability, or national origin. 

The Federal Poverty Guidelines are used in creating the annual and  updating the sliding fee schedule (SFS) to determine eligibility. Though we would like to assist every individual in a timely manner, we do occasionally have a waiting list for these services. Please contact our office for more information on how to complete a pro bono/sliding scale application.

Crisis services are available to all participants. A crisis worker is on-call and available after hours, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays. The role of the on-call worker is to assess the risk(s) and link the individual to the appropriate resources to resolve the crisis (i.e. law enforcement, Mobile Crisis/Crisis Response Team, child/adult protection, emergency room, etc.). They may also make necessary connections to identified supports in the community. 

The on-call worker can also provide effective coping skills, relaxation exercises, and techniques for managing stress and decreasing symptoms. 

In the event of a non-emergent call the worker may refer an individual to contact their assigned staff person the following work day.
