    Not currently rated


    Ratings are calculated from one or more beacon scores. Currently, we require either an Accountability & Finance beacon or an Impact & Measurement beacon to be eligible for a Charity Navigator rating. Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.
    See rating report below to learn why this organization is not currently eligible.

    Historical Ratings
    Charity Navigator's ratings previously did not consider Leadership & Adaptability, Culture & Community, or Impact & Measurement. The historic rating mainly reflects a version of today’s Accountability and Finance score. More information on our previous rating methodologies can be found on our rating methodology page.
    Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!

    Adaptability Statement
    30 out of 30 points
    The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
    This has certainly been a difficult time for all of us. For a small nonprofit organization such as ours, that depend solely on generous donations, since we are not funded or sponsored by any large corporation or pharmaceutical companies, it has been difficult. Our organization adapted by borrowing from our membership to support such things as our 800 HELP telephone line, which is for members who find that they are struggling to cope with the changes of their SKIN and as well as the external changes of the last two years and just want to TALK - Talk Therapy.
