What makes the Vine different?
The Vine accepts insurance, but also provides a sliding fee scale. The Vine’s sliding fee scale is our ministry. We are able to provide our counseling services at a fee determined by a person’s income. Our fee range is from $5 a session to $135 a session.
- Our vision is to make needed help available and not have that dependent on ability to pay.
- We are able to do this with the contributions of 23 area churches, countless individuals and several companies in town.
