Sky’s the Limit Fund
MentoringMental Health
Sky’s the Limit Fund (STLF) provides financial assistance to families of adolescents and young adults facing severe mental health challenges. Through partnerships with 13 reputable programs, they strive to make wilderness therapy and therapeutic nature-based programs accessible and affordable, regardless of financial barriers. They are deeply committed to the transformative power of the outdoors in fostering meaningful connections, building resilience, and supporting mental well-being.
STLF offers the following programs and services:
- Financial Assistance: STLF provides funding to families who cannot afford the full cost of wilderness or nature-based therapy programs. This financial aid makes high-impact treatment accessible to youth facing moderate to severe mental health, substance use, or behavioral health challenges. STLF partners with 13 vetted, reputable therapeutic programs that also offer tuition discounts to participating families.
- Transition Coaching: Each family awarded financial support also receives free post-treatment coaching—12 one-hour sessions over 3 to 6 months. These sessions support youth and families as they transition home, rebuild relationships, and sustain therapeutic gains.
- Advocacy: STLF actively advocates for the benefits of wilderness therapy and raises public awareness about the effectiveness of wilderness therapy and therapeutic nature-based programs. Through community engagement, storytelling, public speaking, and digital outreach, STLF helps reduce stigma and expand understanding of this powerful intervention.
