Overview
Mission
To fulfill the unmet needs of individuals in the Colorado springs, Colorado area for counseling and programs that promote emotional, mental, social, physical, and spiritual wellness without discrimination and regardless of the ability to pay.
What it reported doing in 2023
Mental health counseling services are provided on a sliding fee scale to low income and uninsured individuals and families to promote quality of life by providing services and encouraging activities that are designed to improve emotional, mental, social, physical and spiritual well-being. Since franciscan community counseling has as its fundamental mission to see low income, uninsured and/or underinsured, a person may be put on a waiting list, but no one will be turned away for inability to pay.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 61% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 88% of its reported program spending out as grants.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
