What Mississippi Families as Allies Inc does
Mission
Families as allies is the only statewide organization run by and for families of children with behavioral health challenges in mississippi. We support each other and work together to make things better for our children. Our work is built on three pillars: supporting families, supporting community and supporting positive change. Our core values define us. We value every child and family, excellence, partnership and accountability.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Supporting families:in addition to providing direct support to over 300 families of children and offering virtual resources to approximately 5,000 family members, we continued to expand the populations we serve and the settings in which we collaborate with families and partners. Our efforts included working with state and national emergency response teams to enhance their understanding of the needs of families with children with disabilities. We helped develop responsive protocols for emergency situations involving these families and children. This work culminated in participation on a national committee tasked with creating a curriculum for training frontline emergency responders. Additionally, we co-presented ummc's pediatric mental health consultation champ project at the national federation of families annual conference, highlighting our partnership that supports children's primary care providers in addressing mental health needs. We also supported other family-led organizations interested in adopting this model across different states. Our ongoing collaboration with the hinds county youth court coalition included facilitating a large youth convening in august and establishing…

Our partnership with the early childhood development coalition (ecdc) expanded, integrating family-driven practice training into its onboarding process. Joy hogge, executive director of families as allies, was elected co-chair of the coalition in july 2025, helping to embed family-driven practices into the coalition's ongoing procedures and policies. We also trained attorneys serving as youth and family defenders throughout the state during their annual conference in april 2025, bridging gaps between youth courts and mental health support for youth and families in need. In collaboration with ummc's champ for schools, we trained mental health providers across the delta region on supporting children with behavioral challenges at school, including understanding their rights and available options. We facilitated the annual regional convening for all family-to-family health information centers in the southeast, focusing on how medicaid programs, mental health services, and transition support can assist children with complex medical needs, especially…

Our community mapping efforts identified resources and unmet needs for youth in hinds county involved in the youth court system. We attended national training sessions and conferences on youth court issues, which enabled us to collaborate with the mississippi division of medicaid and other partners to develop a protocol for expanding wraparound care coordination for youth transitioning back into the community after hospitalization. Additionally, we partnered with ummc's department of psychiatry and human behavior to form a cohort interested in developing a patient-centered outcomes research committee, and we submitted a proposal to the patient-centered outcomes research institute. We also provided training for special education directors and attorneys on the rights and experiences of families of children with disabilities, at the invitation of the rosemont legal conference. Joy hogge supported the mississippi division of medicaid during its rollout of the beneficiary advisory council, ensuring its responsiveness to…

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 2023 to 2024, from $157k to $495k (+215%).
How it's funded, over time
