Mission
To extend christian charitable assistance to disabled, disadvantaged, disenfranchised individuals, helping them achieve a higher quality of life.
What it reported doing in 2024
First step recovery program offers a ten-day detoxification phase for those seeking substance abuse treatment services. Clients may choose to enter the 120-day new life program for a client-centered 12-step, focused, cognitive -behavioral changing program. Recovery participants receive case management services, parenting classes, budgeting classes, individual and group counseling, and participation in many social activities at the mission and the community. Clients participate in the jobs (joy of being sober) vocational and occupational program. The new way program is designed to help homeless or those completing the recovery program attain employment. This program mirrors many of the same services as the recovery program: case management services, parenting classes, financial services and classes, health classes, and individual and group counseling. New way clients participate in the social activities at the mission and in the community to learn about being productive engaged citizens. New way provides assessments of the clients' educational needs and the clients are encouraged to work toward completing adult education requirements or college prep courses at the education center.
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.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
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.
