Support that doesn’t fall through the cracks

Behind the scenes, Clea includes a care coordination layer that helps ensure continuity over time. This means:
your support doesn’t disappear if circumstances change
counsellors are supported, not working in isolation
transitions feel steady rather than disruptive
Care coordinators do not provide therapy or medical care. Their role is to help keep support consistent.
