01What it does

What Partner for Mental Health does

Mission

The mission of Partner for Mental Health (pmh) is connecting, educating, and advocating to promote mental health for everyone. Pmh provides community navigation to residents of charlottesville, albemarle, and the surrounding central virginia area. Client support services are diverse to meet the unique needs of each client, but they share the common goal of creating stability for persons with mental illness to help them live happier, healthier, and more fulfilled lives. Community navigators facilitate access to local mental health services and other services as needed by connecting them with partner agencies that provide needed social services (housing, employment, food, medical care, etc.) in addition to mental health treatment.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $22k → $62k.

3 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 93% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of PARTNER FOR MENTAL HEALTH’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

PARTNER FOR MENTAL HEALTH leans on a few funders — its largest provides 89% of grant income and the top three 98%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

98% 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 PARTNER FOR MENTAL HEALTH.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $488k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
