Overview

Mission

Cchs is a comprehensive family and child development program committed to providing quality services that support and nurture the families we serve. Our work connects through our community as we prepare our families and children for a successful future. In doing so, we benefit not only our families but our broader community as well.

What it reported doing in 2024

The early head start program is a federally funded, community-based program for low-income families with infants, toddlers, and pregnant women. Its mission is to promote healthy prenatal outcomes for pregnant women, to enhance the development of very young children, and to promote healthy family functioning. This program served 68 children and their families during the fiscal year 2024.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 98% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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.
