We are off to the races this year! With panels at DTx West (alongside Cortica CEO Neil Hattangadi) and SXSW EDU, and a poster presentation at the American Telemedicine Association's annual conference it has been a busy time for our team. We are gearing up for more events this spring and would love to hear from you if there is an event you think we should attend! It is so inspiring to hear from others in the health and ed tech spaces, along with the many passionate practitioners who are making a difference for Learners every day -- often with the use of Floreo!

Exciting opportunity for educators
FLOREO IMMERSIVE LEARNING PROGRAM
We are thrilled to announce the Floreo Immersive Learning Program, a unique opportunity for schools to bring Floreo to neurodiverse students.
In collaboration with Meta, the program is for neurodiverse students ages 13 and above and includes free Meta Quest 2 headsets for classrooms. In addition, we are providing a Floreo Classroom Bundle for the low setup cost of only $250 through the 2023/2024 school year for participating schools.
Please share with your favorite educators and schools. We are so excited to help get more technology into the hands of very deserving schools. There is a short application process and schools interested in learning more can click here.
New Partnerships
THE FLOREO COMMUNITY CONTINUES TO GROW
A warm welcome to our newest partners at The Helix School (CA) and Brookdale Community College/Voyagers Community School (NJ) who just signed up to begin their Floreo program. We look forward to helping you serve the needs of your students and communities!
And a huge congratulations to Chester County Intermediate Unit (PA) and Southcentral Foundation (AK) who just signed up to renew their Floreo programs!
Are you ready to join the Floreo family? We would love to discuss implementation in your school, district, or practice!
In case you missed it...
NEW OPTION FOR CLINICS
Last summer, Floreo sponsored the application for a new CPT III Code that went into effect January 1, 2023. Code 0770T is an add-on code that represents the practice expense for the software used for the VR technology and may be reported for each session for which VR technology is used. VR technology is incorporated into the base therapy session and is used to enhance the training or teaching of a skill upon which the therapy is focused.
If you are interested in incorporating this CPT III code into your practice's billing procedure, please let us know. We have some tips for outreach that may be helpful for you.

Funding ideas
HOW CAN WE HELP YOU GAIN FUNDING FOR FLOREO?
We know that budgets can be tight and we want to help get Floreo into the hands of anyone who needs it! If we can help write up your DonorsChoose application (teachers) or provide information for a grant you have identified (anyone!) please let us know.
IDEA and Title I funds are also great sources to help you access a Floreo subscription. As you start thinking about budgets for 2023-24, consider adding in Floreo!
