Overview

Mission

Serve persons with terminal illness and their families, using multidisciplinary team of medical and social service professionals, and provide community outreach by offering grief support groups and end of life education.

What it reported doing in 2024

Patient services ceased in August 2023 and the Organization is in the process of winding down.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
