Overview

Mission

Alchohol and drug rehabilitation

What it reported doing in 2024

Alcohol and drug rehabilitation - halfway house with counseling for male and adolescents. Approximately 60 adults and 30 adolescents served.

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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
