Programs
Health Systems Transformation: The Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute is transforming the U.S. health care system so people can easily find mental health care where it is most convenient: in primary care offices. To do this, the Meadows Institute integrates high-quality mental health care into family practices, pediatricians offices, and other primary care settings. In 2024, the Meadows Institute continued to advance integrated behavioral health care, including the gold standard known as the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM), across communities nationwide. To free every Texan from untreated depression and suicide, the Meadows Institute further increased the impact of its Lone Star Depression Challenge (LSDC). As a result of this initiative, which has been adopted by 23 health systems across Texas collectively serving 7.1 million people, more than 550,000 individuals received treatment for depression and more than 120,000 people got better. The Meadows Institute also partnered with Northwestern Medicine and West Health to accelerate the adoption of collaborative care across more than 70 clinics serving more than 350,000 people. The Meadows Institute also laid ground in New York,…

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 2018 to 2019, from $37M to $26M (−29%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 10% · 2022 3% · 2023 9% · 2024 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
