Overview

Mission

As a charitable organization under section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) to provide Alcohol and drug recovery services to members of the public

What it reported doing in 2025

Providing charitable services to Alcohol and drug recovery members of the public. These include free meals, free psychiatric evaluation, and housing.

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 99% 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. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
