Overview
Mission
Cms provides mediation services to disputing parties involved in a variety of neighborhood, business, and community conflicts.
What it reported doing in 2022
Family mediation family mediation applies the principles of traditional mediation to resolve issues that arise in families. Family mediation is similar to community mediation, where a cms mediator assists disputing parties to reach an agreement by facilitating discussions and guidance towards congenial decision making. A cms mediator is a neutral third party that promotes peaceful discussion and negotiation to settle conflicts, encourage sound decision-making, and mutually accepted agreements. Cms family mediation does not legally represent or counsel any of the parties involved during the mediation process.
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
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
