HELLO.
“It is so good that we can count on help from Joy to Life when it’s needed.”
“I heard about Joy to Life from a nurse at another local clinic and they encouraged me to call. So glad I did!”
“Oh the relief we feel! We see so many that need these services and cannot afford it!”
SUPPORT DOESN'T STOP AT TESTING.
THE WHO, WHAT AND HOW OF JOY TO LIFE.
“Thank you! We are so glad we found you!”
Comments like these (and many more) flood the Joy to Life offices daily, as clinics around Alabama discover the life-saving difference that Joy to Life (JTL) can make for their patients.
Jackie Butler, JTL Screening Director, takes all the calls from across the state. She talks with the medical staff, explains how Joy to Life can assist, and prepares the paperwork that will pay the invoices to get the diagnosis process started. Some days she may only receive 3-4 calls, however, the average call volume can be in the range of 20-30-plus calls a day. When Joy to Life started in 2001, the number of calls that resulted in the payment of service vouchers could fit into a single manila folder. Now, more than 20 years later, the number of vouchers barely fit into four large bins with multiple stacks of manila folders, and the stacks and bins are growing every month.
