Overview

Mission

To provide those we serve opportunities for wellness through integrated mental and physical healthcare, support services and affordable housing.

What it reported doing in 2024

Outpatient services are designed to meet the needs of individuals who present distress with mental health or substance abuse challenges and can use psychotherapeutic interventions or psychiatric medications in a community based least restrictive setting. The services are provided by board certified psychiatrists, advance practice nurses, license clinical social workers, license social workers, licensed professional counselors, or licensed certified alcohol and drug counselors in individual or group sessions. The goal is to enable the child, adolescent or adult to relive his/her distress and function independently of therapeutic support. The program serves over 3,000 indiviudals a year in two outpatient locations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
