Sustainable Funding For Micro Nonprofits: A Step By Step Money Model For Therapy Practices

If you are dreaming about a nonprofit therapy practice or micro mental health nonprofit and quietly wondering how it could ever be financially sustainable, this video walks you through a clear, realistic funding plan. In this Friday live training, I share how I think about sustainable funding for micro nonprofits in the mental health space, including client fees, contracts, grants, and donors, without making grants the entire foundation of your budget. I am Dr. Lauren Lawson, a licensed marriage and family therapist and nonprofit executive director who helps therapists build nonprofit practices that serve the communities they care about and still support their own lives. My focus is on creating a third path for therapists who do not want to choose between traditional community mental health or private practice that only serves those who can pay private rates. In this video you will learn: ✅ Why micro nonprofits in mental health can actually be more agile, relational, and sustainable than large organizations ✅ How I adapt general nonprofit fundraising research to the specific realities of therapy and wellness practices ✅ The 40 / 30 / 20 / 10 funding model for micro therapy nonprofits ➡️ 40 percent client generated revenue (insurance, cash pay, sustainable sliding scale) ➡️ 30 percent contracts and partnerships (counties, schools, hospitals, local agencies) ➡️ 20 percent grants and foundations (local, size appropriate, often unrestricted) ➡️ 10 percent community support (donors and simple fundraising strategies) ✅ Why grants should supplement your therapy nonprofit income instead of being the main pillar ✅ How to think about overhead for micro mental health nonprofits and why your smaller structure is an advantage ✅ Real life examples of contracts with schools, counties, and healthcare partners that can fund full positions ✅ How to approach local foundations, corporations, and family funders in a grounded and relational way ✅ Simple community fundraising ideas that actually work for a small therapy nonprofit ✅ A suggested 12 month implementation timeline so you are not trying to build every funding stream at once This training is especially helpful if you are: ✅ A therapist in community mental health who wants a nonprofit therapy practice that is sustainable ✅ A private practice owner who wants to bring sliding scale clients under a nonprofit model without burning out financially ✅ A wellness professional who wants a micro nonprofit that can realistically reach 500K to 1M in annual revenue over time Topics covered include: ✅ Diversifying nonprofit funding for therapy practices ✅ Strategic use of insurance contracts in a nonprofit counseling setting ✅ Sliding scale structures that match your actual cost per session ✅ County, school, and healthcare partnerships that bring in program funding ✅ Local grants and community foundations that support mental health nonprofits If you want to keep learning about nonprofit therapy practice models, sustainable funding, and the third path for mission driven therapists, you can explore more resources and support options in the links in the description. https://www.laurenlawsoncoaching.com/... ----------------------------- ✨ Empowering Therapists to Build Nonprofit Practices That Change Communities ✨ Helping mission-driven therapists create sustainable nonprofit group practices, so you can serve your community and support your life. ► WORK WITH ME 📍 Build a Nonprofit Group Practice That Works for You and Your Community / https://laurenlawsoncoaching.com/ ► FOLLOW ON SOCIALS 📸 Instagram:   / nonprofit_therapy_leaders   🗣️ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?... 👥 Facebook Group:   / nonprofitleader   ► ABOUT LAUREN LAWSON Lauren Lawson, PsyD, is a therapist, nonprofit founder, and coach who helps therapists build sustainable nonprofit group practices that expand access to care without sacrificing financial stability.
