Overview
Mission
The affiliated sante group facilitates the well-being and safety of individuals at risk for emotional distress, as well as their communities. We develop and deliver tailored recovery-based health services and innovative crisis intervention and response systems.
What it reported doing in 2024
Outpatient behavioral health services - sante's outpatient mental health clinics work with youth, adults, and families to provide behavioral health treatment and medication management to improve daily functioning and promote mental health. Sante's clinics provide person-centered individual counseling, group therapy, medication evaluation and management, cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy, and other treatment options as needed. These services are offered both in person or via telehealth. Sante received $718,178 in grant funding to operate these services.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 84% 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
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
