Overview

Mission

Tribe Recovery provides the resources for those on the road to recovery to become independent, believe in themselves, and develop a life worth living. We create hope within a supportive family setting, provide a safe therapeutic space to heal and hope our clients have successful recoveries that last for the rest of their lives.

What it reported doing in 2023

Traditional housing programs and halfway houses for those recovering from addiction.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 61% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
