It costs money to provide quality health and human services, especially programs that serve people at high risk or with complicated, chronic problems that require professional skills. Fees usually are set on a sliding scale to reflect the individual’s ability to pay.

Fees are generally adjusted according to ability to pay. This stretches your United Way dollars as far as possible and allows many more people to receive help. While resources may limit some services, no one is refused service because of inability to pay.
