Overview

Mission

We strive to strengthen our communities by helping children, families, and adults heal from the trauma of abuse, addiction, and behavioral and mental health disorders.

What it reported doing in 2024

Community Healing Centers allocate funding toward the community to help support those in need of professional and integrated healing services. We provide several services related to overall wellness and healing, including addiction treatment/recovery, counseling, education, prevention, and more. These services give community members who are struggling with mental and physical health concerns an opportunity to find an outlet for healing and recovery and allows them to live a healthier and more responsible lifestyle.

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.
