While Aris Clinic does not provide transportation, your child’s home school district (the district where you live) may offer transportation to and from our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) on school days during the academic year or on school days in summer if they are enrolled in summer school. Families should contact their school district to request transportation arrangements while their student attends Aris Clinic.
Additionally, some insurance plans offer medical ride benefits. We recommend checking with your provider to see if this is an option for your family.
If your school district does not provide transportation and insurance does not cover a ride, parents or guardians are responsible for arranging transportation. Reliable transportation is essential—students with consistent attendance at IOP have higher engagement and better treatment outcomes.
For patients who are licensed drivers, Aris Clinic staff can approve them to drive themselves to and from the clinic on a daily basis.
For more information on IOP transportation, see the Transportation section in the FAQs.
