Financial Systems and Operations   

Spokane Mental Health is a 501 (c)(3) tax exempt not for profit organization. The majority of its programs are funded by federal, state, and county agencies. SMH has a progressive, knowledgeable, and active Board of Directors which has adopted financially pertinent committees including those with Budget and Operations, Compliance and Audit responsibilities. SMH has had clean audit opinions since its inception over 30 years ago, including those activities that are under OMB Circular A-133.

SMH maintains stable financial health in an increasingly complex mental health funding and regulatory environment. We have maintained positive contract relationships and service partnerships with key fundors and contractors. Two entities represent the significant majority of SMH annual revenues and include Spokane County Regional Service Network (SCRSN), and Aging and Long Term Care of Eastern Washington (ALTCEW).

As a healthcare social service organization, approximately 83% of SMH's expenses are compensation and employee benefit related. Consumers are served and supported at fifteen SMH facilities throughout the City of Spokane and Spokane County. All facilities in which consumers are seen are ADA compliant.
