About Hazel Health
Hazel Health partners with schools to eliminate barriers to quality healthcare for all children. Hazel’s culturally competent care team works alongside school nurses and parents to treat students’ physical and mental health conditions, connect families to local health resources, and advise on the next steps to ensure continuity of care. As the only telehealth provider designed specifically for schools, Hazel adheres to FERPA, HIPAA, and district policies for on-demand doctor visits from school or home.
We are thrilled to have Hopelab directly involved in Hazel’s efforts to bring integrated physical and mental health services for students. Hopelab has a rich history of bringing the best in design thinking and connecting it to the authentic voices of young people to develop powerful new products and services. Our missions could not be more aligned.
Why We Invested
Health inequity makes it particularly challenging for students from underrepresented backgrounds to access mental healthcare. Medicaid covers nearly half of all students and even more students of color, but most mental health providers don’t accept public insurance. Hazel Health addresses these challenges by providing access to high-quality healthcare via K-12 schools, regardless of students’ ability to pay.
