Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs - Click through the questions below for more information.
Is CRi a Nonprofit?
Yes. CRi is a 501(c)(3) organization and is recognized by the federal government at a private nonprofit.
Is CRi a licensed organization?
CRi is licensed by the DBHDS. All services provided are regularly overseen and audited. Details of specific licenses are available through our main office.
How is CRi funded?
The bulk of CRi’s income is through Medicaid and government-funded contracts. The designated use of these resources is very specific, often tied to a particular individual and always to the provision of specified supports.
While public funding covers basic services, it often falls short of giving our individuals the luxuries others enjoy in their day-to-day life. Donations bridge this gap, allowing CRi to go above and beyond to enrich the lives of the individuals in our care.
To make a gift to CRi to cover unfunded expenses, please visit www.mycri.org/donate today!
