Overview

Mission

To preserve relationships first by safely maintaining and healing familial relationships through a trauma-informed, child welfare case management model.

What it reported doing in 2024

Permanency Primer: A secondary case management service is focused exclusively on parent engagement, coaching, and support to parents involved in the child welfare system. Permanency Primers integrate Trust Based Relational Intervention and case management through an executive functioning coaching method of service delivery. Permanency Primer is a component of the Organization's full service case management model and can be a stand-alone service through a contractual partnership with other case management organizations or as a prevention service.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
