Overview

Mission

Our Mission To provide compassionate, high-quality, and integrated health care that respects the unique needs of each patient and advances wellness in the communities we serve. Our Vision. Staffed with a couple nurses and doctors, a coordinator, and several volunteers, Chase Brexton was open for only two hours two nights a week and our few services were free (donation suggested, to help pay for supplies). Some relocations and staff changes later, by the mid-1980s we found ourselves to be among a limited number of providers on the frontlines of a new epidemic that would become known as HIV/AIDS. It made sense that we took this challenge on. We’d been founded to meet a need that was not readily or safely available, and we grew to meet a need that was dire.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 92% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% 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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
