WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE SUPPORT?
The Patient Advocacy Program is a FREE PROGRAM available for all Wyoming families regardless of income level or type of diagnosis. Our goal is to work with you, understand your unique situation, and help connect you with the resources available to help you and your family during this difficult time! |

WHAT KIND OF RESOURCES CAN YOU CONNECT ME WITH?
Our goal with the Patient Advocacy Program is to be far-reaching and to provide support across all levels of life during this difficult time! We can provide support and connections to resources that assist with travel expenses, childcare, school accommodations, medical support, food assistance, adaptive medical equipment, counseling, and anything else you might need throughout your child's illness. |

EVERY FAMILY deserves an advocate to help them navigate throughout their child's medical journey. Our philosophy is to provide WHOLE FAMILY CARE because the diagnosis is difficult for every person in the family!

Katelin was born and raised in Casper, WY and has more than 10 years of experience working with children and families in difficult situations across education settings. She joined OCF in November 2020 as a Patient Advocate because she is passionate about helping people and wants to support families throughout their child's medical journey. Eileen is a Casper native and proud graduate of University of Wyoming! Following her own brief "retirement,' she felt called to get back into the workforce. Having worked extensively in the nonprofit sector and in industries that truly serve people, she knew that is where her heart and passion lies. She joined the OCF family as a Program Assistant and truly enjoys supporting families! |
