Overview

Mission

Affordable counseling and education to adults with limited financial resources.

What it reported doing in 2024

Counseling/group services - center for community counseling(ccc)provides professional mental-health counseling for individuals, couples, and families who are uninsured, underinsured, or otherwise unable to afford therapy. Services are delivered primarily through licensed volunteer therapists, supervised practicum students, and part-time staff clinicians. We provided approximately 2000 hours of therapy to more than 200 clients this year. Charging session fees of 5-40, ensuring accessibility for all income levels. Donated professional mental-health services amounted to 308,410 which are not reflected in the form 990, consistent with IRS instructions excluding donated services from reported revenue.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 93% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
