$3,558 spent33% of program spendingFamily mediation family mediation applies the principles of traditional mediation to resolve issues that arise in families. Family mediation is similar to community mediation, where a cms mediator assists disputing parties to reach an agreement by facilitating discussions and guidance towards congenial decision making. A cms mediator is a neutral third party that promotes peaceful discussion and negotiation to settle conflicts, encourage sound decision-making, and mutually accepted agreements. Cms family mediation does not legally represent or counsel any of the parties involved during the mediation process.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $65k to $29k (−55%).

99% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund COMMUNITY MEDIATION SERVICES INC.
