Easterseals has a Private Pay option for students who do not meet the eligibility requirements for our other funding streams but have a disability and need services to successfully participate in and navigate college beyond accessibility accommodations.
Private Pay – Easterseals can contract directly with a family, student, or organization to provide College Navigator services. Our fee for private pay services is $85 an hour.
If you need help with funding, below are two options:
- Attainable Savings Plan (ABLE): The ABLE Savings Plan can pay for qualified disability-related expenses including education and services to support education. For questions or information on ABLE Savings Plans visit the MEFA website.
- Easterseals Mini Loan Program: Provides zero-interest loans of $100 to $4,000 to purchase assistive technology products and services including College Navigator.
Virtual services may be an option if the student is out of state or at a college where we do not provide services.
For more information or to enroll in this program, contact Alexandra, Assistant Director of Community Support Services at aullrich@eastersealsma.org or 617.226.2854.
