Overview

Mission

Mosaic community services, inc., a subsidiary of sheppard pratt, a not-for-profit behavioral health system, is dedicated to improving the quality of life of individuals and families by compassionately serving their mental health, addiction, special education, and community support needs.

What it reported doing in 2024

Rehabilitation and recovery services: provides residential and rehabilitation support, living skills, and vocational services to adults with serious mental illness and developmental disabilities.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 91% 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

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.
