At Ember & Root Counseling, we believe healing happens best within a supportive community — a village. Financial barriers shouldn’t prevent anyone from accessing the therapy and counseling they need. That’s why we created The Village Fund, an internal client assistance initiative designed to help make services more accessible for those facing financial challenges.

How The Village Fund Works

The Village Fund provides financial support to help cover counseling costs for clients who may not otherwise be able to afford therapy. This ensures that no one is turned away due to financial limitations, while maintaining the quality and integrity of the care we provide.

Support Through Merchandise

To sustain The Village Fund, we sell stickers and merchandise featuring the phrase “We are THE VILLAGE.” Each purchase spreads a message of community and directly supports funding therapy sessions for clients in need.

Why “We are THE VILLAGE”?

Recovery is not a solo journey — it takes a community to uplift, support, and hold each other accountable. By participating in The Village Fund, whether through merchandise or contributions, you’re helping build a network of care that values resilience, connection, and collective healing.

How You Can Help

• Purchase Stickers & Merchandise: Show support and contribute to funding client care.

• Apply for Assistance: Clients facing financial barriers can apply to receive support through The Village Fund.

• Contribute to the Fund: Your voluntary contributions help expand access to counseling services.

Important: The Village Fund is part of Ember & Root Counseling, a for-profit practice. Contributions and merchandise purchases are not tax-deductible.

Together, we can create a community where everyone has access to the care they deserve. We are THE VILLAGE.
