Overview

Mission

Provide mental health counseling to children

Kidz Can provided mental health counseling to just over 305 youth. In over 2,650 sessions, our clinicians provided almost 4,382 hours of intensive counseling in the home of the family being serviced.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
