Overview
Mission
Provides culturally-competent mental health care to veterans and first responders that reforges the critical connection between the mind and the heart. We provide skills-based mindfulness education and treatment for veterans and first responders to address the impact of post-traumatic stress. We have developed a holistic approach for the treatment of post-traumatic stress, using ancient practices such as meditative movement, breathwork, meditation, and time in nature. We have also developed a strong peer support network of alumni who have attended our five-day mindfulness program.
What it reported doing in 2024
Our second fall retreat was facilitated by front line foundations, a non-profit mindfulness program for veterans and first responders in southern Vermont. Is it our goal to provide retreats to veterans and first responders on an annual basis at silver bay ymca in New York state, free of charge and attended by eight people. The spiritual well-being of this population is often overlooked. A retreat format supported deep connection and healing among our participants. Developed around the ancient art of story-telling, our first fall retreat in november 2023 allowed for a deeply powerful and transformative experience and allowed participants to process their grief together.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 69% 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.
