FAMILY ENDOWMENT PROGRAMS

Thank you for your interest in donating to River Oak!

River Oak’s dependable delivery of proven programs is contingent on a family’s ability to stay on track and in treatment despite the occurrence of short-term set backs.

Agencies rely on River Oak as a behavioral health nonprofit that delivers proven programs and services efficiently and with integrity, and they respect River Oak’s accountability and transparency. But what the agencies don’t fund is often the key ingredient between success and delays in progress for River Oak families.

Reaching out to River Oak is often the only option for families facing immediate and overwhelming life obstacles that can derail treatment.

Through our privately funded Family Endowment Program we can offer emergency support such as a one-time rent payment or a late utility bill, scholarships and enrichment opportunities, tech tools for success at school, transportation to connect clients with community services and even family summer camp offering treatment and respite.

Contact River Oak at 916-609-5100, info@riveroak.org for more information.
