Overview

Mission

To provide integrated christian and evidence based mental health and support services within the community organized exclusively for charitable, religious, education, and scientific purposes.

What it reported doing in 2024

Mental health services were provided to individuals, couples, and families in the rutherford county area. The center served approximately 150 individuals during 2020 including underserved, uninsured, and high risk populations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
