This wayzata setting fosters a sense of community while respecting personal privacy and autonomy. Our ihswt services are tailored to each person's unique goals and needs. This includes assistance with daily living skills, health and wellness routines, financial management, and community engagement, all with a focus on skill-building and independence. Our three sls homes in plymouth provide 24-hour care by trained direct support professionals. Our services include guidance in areas such as social skills, home maintenance, cooking, transportation, money management, communication and coping skills. These services ensure safety and stability while encouraging personal growth and self-determination. At episcopal group homes, our teams are person-centered, empowering individuals to lead lives of their design while receiving the appropriate level of support to thrive. Revenue comes through medicaid and social security which is funded in part by the federal, state and county government.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 97% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
