Funding for Case Management
The first step to receiving services is to contact the Integrated Services of Kalamazoo Access Center at (269) 553-8060. The staff at the Access Center will do an initial screening to determine what services you qualify for and connect you to those services.
Cost for services: Fees are based upon your ability to pay or your health insurance coverage. While no one is denied services based on their financial situation, there may be a waiting list in place to receive non-Medicaid covered services
Getting Started
