Overview
Mission
We exist to support individuals in meeting their full potential through the achievement of wellness in body mind and spirit. We are here to remove barriers to wellness and provide a safe judgement free space for all. We have done so by providing overdose prevention and community education services. We have fed the local unsheltered population and encouraged other community groups to support our efforts. We have hosted multiple types of support groups as well as provided free support and referrals to families experiencing mental health and or substance misuse struggles.
What it reported doing in 2024
We provided a safe judgment free office and group clubhouse space for individuals seeking recovery from substance misuse and or mental health troubles. We have also provided hundreds of boxes of free Narcan in a rural location where stigma is high and so are overdose rates. More than 30 individuals were serviced on a monthly basis in terms of gaining individual support and attending regular recovery support groups. More than 300 people were trained to provide Narcan and given overdose prevention education.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
