Arcus Behavioral Health and Wellness

In 2022, using donations from the City of Chicago as well as from individual donations, we have continued to subsidize our clients so that they can access and afford high quality mental health care without passing the costs on to our employees, which often results in nonprofit burnout and high turnover. Of our 503 clients and families we have seen in 2022, over 40% of them have received some form of support from us either through direct subsidy or writing off their balances. Our clients include under-insured (high deductible insurance plans) as well as uninsured (including individuals and families who are ineligible for Medicare or Medicaid). Over 45% of our clients are ethnic/cultural minorities and 50% of our clients are LGBTQ-identified.
