Overview

Mission

To provide trauma-informed mental health services, peer support, recovery programming, and wellness initiatives for veterans, underserved individuals, and communities impacted by trauma through education, advocacy, therapeutic services, and community-based support programs.

What it reported doing in 2024

Integrative Trauma Recovery Group, a clinical psychotherapy program designed to support trauma recovery and emotional stabilization, as well as developed and implemented the Couples Attachment and Resilience Psychoeducation Group, a supportive psychoeducational initiative focused on strengthening intimate partner relationships impacted by military-related stressors, trauma, and reintegration challenges. The organization also expanded programming efforts to support and train veterans pursuing Peer Recovery Specialist services and peer support engagement within the community. Programs provided trauma-informed education, emotional support, peer recovery support, and recovery-focused interventions for veterans, couples, and underserved community members through grant-funded behavioral health and wellness initiatives.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
