Overview

Mission

Providing therapy, counseling, and family support services to members of the community struggling with behavioral, mental, and/or emotional health challenges.

What it reported doing in 2025

For 2024 1530 Therapy Clients for 3608 therapy appointments. 465 Family Support Clients for 605 appointments.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 64% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
