BEFORE YOU APPLY
01
CLINICALLY RECOMMENDED CARE
Forge primarily funds additional residential treatment days when a treating clinical team recommends more time. We may also consider medical detox, sober living, therapy, outpatient care, and other clinically recommended recovery services.
02
WHO CAN SUBMIT
A treating provider, the person receiving care, or a family member may submit a request. Every request must identify the recommended care, proposed provider, amount needed, and financial barrier.
03
HOW FUNDING WORKS
If approved, Forge pays the agreed amount directly to the approved recovery provider through a 0% loan. Funds are never issued directly to the recipient, and submitting a request does not guarantee approval.
05
PROVIDER INDEPENDENCE
Forge does not receive referral fees or require applicants to use a preferred facility. When a provider is not already established, Forge may help identify appropriate care options based on clinical recommendations, individual needs, program fit, quality of care, cost, and available resources.
04
RECIPIENT COMMITMENT
Approved recipients make a small down payment and agree to a manageable 0% repayment plan. Repayment builds accountablity and returns funds to help someone else.
