Overview
Mission
To improve the quality of life of people in its community by promoting growth, mutual interdependence, and recovery.
What it reported doing in 2024
Community support programs - thrive behavioral health's community support programs provide a coordinated system of care for adults with serious and persistent mental illness, enabling individuals to maintain psychiatric stability, a quality life in the community, and ultimately to achieve their own personal recovery. Services include psychiatric, mental health and substance use counseling, and case management designed to meet the needs of each individual client; on-going assessment services, advocacy and daily living and vocational skills training; crisis assessment and intervention services; group homes and supervised apartments; a psychiatric rehab program based on a clubhouse model certified by the international committee on clubhouse development (iccd) that provides vocational and social supports; and a court clinic where court-based clinicians evaluate the behavioral health status of individuals that present before the court, with a priority given to veterans, and recommend appropriate treatment rather than incarceration.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 82% 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
