Overview

Mission

Counseling and treating drug and alcohol abuse clients.

What it reported doing in 2024

Outpatient counseling was provided for general mental health issues and substance abuse issues. It is part of an ongoing program to receognize and treat clients who are involved with drug abuse or at risk and the associated problems. Clients range from children to adults.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
