Frequently asked questions.

  • One of the most unique and impactful components of the VitalPath Initiative is our creative and flexible funding model. By strategically positioning ourselves to accept multiple streams of public funding, we ensure that schools are not burdened with covering costs from their operating budgets. Schools can leverage funding sources such as John Peterson funding, Title funding, and even Medicaid funding to cover the costs of our programming.

    VPI program costs range from $4,000- $13,000 depending on the program selection. However, to minimize financial strain on schools that are already navigating tight budgets, we are seeking financial support to subsidize costs for every school we serve. In addition, we have created a flexible menu for schools to operate within their budget!

    This approach allows us to reduce the financial burden on schools while providing students and their communities with access to vital resources and transformative programming.

    Through this innovative funding strategy, we aim to ensure that every school, regardless of its financial circumstances, has the opportunity to offer the VitalPath Initiative to their students and community, helping to bridge gaps in education and wellness.

    We customize your invoice to maximize your savings based on the services we provide. By actively securing grants and private donations, we’re able to pass those savings directly to you!

    Once you decide to partner with us, we will review available days and times to provide programming that best fits your school’s needs.
