Here Now Health

Here Now Health provides trauma-informed mental health care and caregiver support via telehealth to children and families in the child welfare system.

Here Now Health is a virtual healthcare company that delivers trauma-informed mental health services and caregiver support through telehealth to children and families affected by the child welfare system. Its clinical work centres on foster-connected youth and system-impacted children - one of Medicaid's highest-need populations - with the explicit aim of sustaining continuity of care through placement changes and reducing preventable crises.

The company operates two service lines. The first is trauma-informed mental health care delivered virtually for children in the child welfare system; the second is caregiver support services, also provided over telehealth platforms, for the families and caregivers around them. Both are designed for a population whose circumstances - frequent moves, disrupted relationships, complex trauma histories - make consistent therapeutic relationships unusually hard to maintain. The technical domains behind the work are telehealth, virtual care platforms and digital health.

Here Now Health works within the healthcare, behavioural health, child welfare and Medicaid/managed care sectors, and states a focus on measurable value for state and Medicaid partners. The company was founded on lived experience: founder Michelle Turner is a former foster parent and a healthcare executive. Its stated mission is consistency of care for system-impacted youth.
