Overview

Mission

The mission is to support families, individuals, pastors and congregations during challenging times of crises, problems, and opportunities.

What it reported doing in 2024

Family life is strengthened among people living in scotland county and surrounding areas. We do this through counseling, educational events and a variety of specialized services.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 68% 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
