Overview

Mission

Women's drug and alcohol rehabilitation program

What it reported doing in 2024

Introduction center operations - this program, conducted at five introduction centers, entails the introductory rehabilitation and program indoctrination of women with drug and alcohol problems. Women successfully completing this program are sent to the dtc for primary rehabilitation.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
