Overview

Mission

Our goal is to reduce infant mortality and improve the outcome of pregnancy in our community by offering health education and case management services to low-income, high-risk pregnant women and their families.

What it reported doing in 2025

Healthier moms & babies' mobile diaper outreach program provides diapers, wipes, and other essential infant care supplies to families experiencing financial hardship throughout northeast Indiana. The mobile outreach unit expands access to underserved communities while helping reduce diaper need and the financial burden placed on families with young children. In addition to distributing essential supplies, staff provides education on maternal and infant health, safe sleep, breastfeeding, and infant mortality prevention while connecting families to healthier moms & babies' home visiting programs, behavioral health services, doula services, and other community resources.

  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

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.
