Overview

Mission

Spiritual Roads mission is to help people recover and heal from the disease of addiction and find freedom from unhealthy behaviors. We believe that addiction - and other self-defeating behaviors - are progressive and can be terminal, if left untreated. At Spiritual Roads, we follow a proven, time-tested recovery process and believe that any participant who is willing to follow the program will begin to heal.We believe that if a person who suffers from addictions, obsessions or compulsive behaviors is alive, there is hope for healing. We understand that our every contact with a new or potential participant may be that persons last, best chance for recovery, and that every crisis is an opportunity to bring that person into recovery and healing

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
