Program accomplishments

• NFP - Nurse Family Partnership ProgramThe Organization's Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) program is an evidence-based, intensive nurse home-visitation program for at-risk, low-income mothers living in Mecklenburg County. Validated by four decades of research, NFP is a proven model that breaks the cycle of poverty by improving pregnancy outcomes, monitoring child health and development, and strengthening the economic self-sufficiency of families. The Organization's NFP program served 545 families during the year ending June 30, 2025, and has been successful in enhancing its service to mothers who are especially vulnerable, clinically complex, and at risk for poor maternal and child health outcomes. In 2025, 88% of babies were born full-term, 95% of children in our program were up to date on recommended vaccines at age 2, and 82% of moms successfully avoided unplanned subsequent pregnancies.
  Expenses $2,299,748
• A Guided Journey Program (Maternal Health)Launched in 2021, A Guided Journey (AGJ) is a maternal-child health initiative that employs residents living in six priority health zip codes to serve as Community Health Workers. These state-certified individuals work in their own communities to educate and support pregnant and new moms, providing information, guidance, and connection to needed resources. AGJ is a complement to NFP and, for the year ended June 30, 2025, served 527 families who may not have qualified for or needed the intensive, long-term support provided through NFP. Through this long-term case management program, families are educated and supported, and their health and social determinants of health needs are assessed and addressed, ensuring that they have the tools and resources needed to achieve better health and thrive. In 2024, AGJ was expanded through receipt of a federal Healthy Start Enhanced Grant from the US Department of Health & Human Services aimed at reducing the rates of adverse infant and maternal health mortality and morbidity in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community. In 2025, 100% of moms were screened for postpartum depression, and 86% of women completed postpartum visits within 6 weeks of delivery, having established a medical home. Through parenting education, 85% of AGJ infants are placed to sleep following safe sleep practices.
  Expenses $1,669,015
• Physicians Reach Out Program (PRO)The Organization's Physicians Reach Out Program (PRO) provides the uninsured with access to comprehensive health care, including primary care, specialty care, labs, diagnostic tests, and hospital-based services. For every dollar invested in PRO, the Organization leverages $97 in donated charges, provided by a robust network of approximately 1,600 volunteer physicians and allied health professionals. For the year ended June 30, 2025, PRO coordinated approximately $77 million in donated medical and dental charges for 5,981 patients enrolled in the program. The program coordinated 3,152 specialty care referrals, including 111 referrals for cancer treatment, 211 referrals to surgery, and 172 pediatric specialty care referrals.
  Expenses $743,909
• Clinic Program The Care Ring Clinic is a primary care medical home for the uninsured and underserved, serving 1,128 patients for the year ended June 30, 2025. The clinic has a special focus on supporting patients to successfully manage chronic illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension and ensures its patients have access to preventative cancer screenings. In 2025, Care Ring received a Gold Seal of Excellence from the National Association of Free Clinics, a measure of the Clinic's high standard of care and quality outcomes. Care Ring has been recognized by the American Heart Association and the American Medical Association with a Gold+ award through their Target: BP initiative for improving blood pressure control rates. Care Ring also received a Gold award from the American Heart Association's Target: Type 2 Diabetes program for diabetes management outcomes. The clinic implemented a quality improvement initiative that increased colorectal cancer screening rates from 43% to 55% in FY25. Beyond physical health care, patients are screened for social determinants of health needs, addressing barriers such as food insecurity, housing instability, and transportation
  Expenses $666,471 · revenue $50,829
• Case Management ProgramCentral to the Organization's success is its attention to social drivers of health, which are human and socio-economic factors (food/housing insecurity, transportation barriers, etc) that are often outside the scope of care for most clinical providers. Care Ring employs a multi-disciplinary team of community health workers, registered nurses, and mental health professionals to provide wrap-around services across all programs, as well as community-based care. Clients are universally screened, and those with exceptional healthcare and/or socio-economic needs are referred for case management interventions, which may include medication management, disease-specific education, mental health counseling, and direct referrals to community organizations to address critical unmet needs. During FY25, Care Ring relocated to a much larger space, enabling the addition of a full-size, onsite food pantry, directly addressing food insecurity in our patient population and the community at large. Open twice a week and in partnership with Nourish Up, families served can self-select a full week's worth of healthy groceries.
