Overview

Mission

To improve and impact lives and our communities through mental and behavioral health awareness, education, support programs and resources

What it reported doing in 2025

With a focus on codependence, boundaries and the effects of childhood trauma or emotional development, our five-day retreats for adults 21 and older feature opportunities for transformational change, a focus on personal growth and self-actualization, and personal and professional success in forming and maintaining relations. We work with people to raise their awareness of how past family roles and family systems influence their current relationships with themselves and others. Participants completed a 5-day workshop, outcomes included self-evaluation of higher esteem of themselves and others, healing from past trauma, childhood abuse and identification of skills that will help them with their own future recovery, self care and relationships with others.

Operating model

Revenue model
Investment-supported. 88% of the money available for current operations came from recurring investment income.
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. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
