Carolina Pastoral and Family Counseling Center

Changing Lives Confidentially

What We Do:

Carolina Pastoral and Family Counseling Service is operated according to sound business practices.

• It is responsible to a governing board

• Oversight of that board is provided by the Administrative Council of Trenholm Road United Methodist Church

• Our by-laws mandate that this service cannot complete the year with a deficit

• An audit is performed each year by an independent accounting firm

• We receive a 20% subsidy, the remainder of the budget is generated from services provide

• Everyone pays something for the services she/he receives; but no one is refused for an inability to pay full fee

• Persons who are able to pay full fee are expected to pay full fee

• The administrative personnel will assist a client with filing for insurance reimbursement.  Our licensed clinicians are providers for most major insurance companies in this area (?)

• Our fee is set as low as possible; usually lower than commercial sources, in order to provide affordable services to as many persons as possible.  We must, however, produce enough revenue to remain financially healthy.

• Our support is derived from:

• Office space and utilities donated by Trenholm Road United Methodist Church

• A monthly financial contribution from Trenholm Road United Methodist Church

• Fees from clients

• Insurance payments, reimbursements

• Income from the Ministry Resources Fund of Central Carolina Community Foundation

• Tax deductible donations from groups and individuals
