Overview
Mission
The corporation shall provide programs and services to people of all races and religions that endeavor to mitigate the effects of emotional and physical suffering. The programs include child and teen support groups and parent and adult support groups. In addition, there is an annual grieving family holiday program for families that have had a loss, and an annual family reunion program for families that have had a loss. The corporation also offers general crisis intervention and assessment and referral by staff for children and adults.
What it reported doing in 2020
Counseling (ongoing program) comprises the corporation's primary service since inception. Individual and group counseling sessions have reached out to familities and individuals. We help children and adults learn to cope, survive, and ultimately thrive after suffering the loss of a loved one through individually tailored therapy programs.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 81% 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 program spending has declined or grown slowly.
