Overview

Mission

Healing lives and transforming communities by improving access to mental health services through an integrated system of prevention, response, and treatment grounded in an understanding of trauma and abuse.

What it reported doing in 2024

Reachs prevention program equips students and community members with tools to understand consent, recognize abuse, and build healthy relationships. We deliver age-appropriate, trauma-informed curriculum from early childhood through high school, as well as specialized presentations for parents and professionals. In 2024, reach delivered 583 presentations to 9,853 students. Post-program surveys showed that students: could identify trusted adults, understood concepts of consent and boundaries, and felt more informed about how to seek help. This work directly disrupts cycles of harm and connects survivors to care.

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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
