Compass Health, Inc.

Compass Health, Inc., doing business as Pathways Community Behavioral Healthcare, is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Clinton, Missouri that operates as a federal grant recipient providing integrated behavioral health, substance use disorder treatment, and primary care services to rural and underserved communities across Missouri. The organization functions as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC), operating across a 25-county service region with a footprint spanning rural eastern and central Missouri. Compass Health competes predominantly as a grant recipient rather than a federal contractor — it holds no federal contract prime awards and does not sit on GSA or agency-wide contract vehicles.

Compass Health's federal funding concentrates in health and human services grants from HUD, HHS agencies including SAMHSA and HRSA, the Department of Justice, and state pass-through entities. The top five funding sources by award count account for 63% of recent awards: the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development leads with 18 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program awards (CFDA 14.267) totaling $828 thousand combined potential value; HHS Health Resources and Services Administration accounts for nine awards supporting clinic infrastructure, primary health center support, and health professional training initiatives; the Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs funds victim services; HHS SAMHSA funds behavioral health programming; and HHS Administration for Children and Families supports family services. The organization acts as the prime recipient on 45 awards (71% of the footprint) and as a sub-recipient on 18 awards (29%), with sub-awards flowing through state agencies including Missouri Department of Social Services, Missouri Department of Public Safety, and Missouri Department of Mental Health, as well as through national intermediaries such as the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants.

Compass Health's representative grant work includes a $240,233 HUD CoC Program award (January–December 2026) for permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, and supportive services in Clinton addressing homelessness; a five-year SAMHSA grant (September 2024–September 2029) for youth suicide prevention and early intervention targeting young Black males and LGBTQIA+ populations across schools, juvenile justice systems, and mental health programs; a $1 million HHS Healthcare Systems Bureau community project funding award (September 2023–September 2026) for construction of a 10,396-square-foot Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic in Eldon, Missouri; a three-year SAMHSA 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline Center Follow-Up Program grant (September 2023–September 2026) enhancing post-contact support in a four-county Missouri region; a four-year SAMHSA Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic Improvement and Advancement (CCBHC-IA) grant (September 2022–September 2026) serving 2,300 uninsured and underinsured individuals with serious mental illness, substance use disorder, and co-occurring disorders; and a three-year HRSA Medication Assisted Treatment — Prescription Drug and Opioid Addiction Program award (September 2021–September 2026) serving individuals with opioid use disorders across five counties in eastern Missouri. Sub-award activity includes participation in HRSA behavioral health workforce training (National Psychology Training Consortium's ABOUT Missouri project placing doctoral psychology interns), refugee health services through USCRI, and domestic violence victim services through state departments.

Activity has declined from a peak of ten awards in 2023 to two awards in 2026 year to date. Five awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, creating potential recompete exposure for Compass Health and pipeline opportunity for competing vendors seeking partnership in rural community behavioral health and homelessness programs. Compass Health operates a single parent contract vehicle — Indefinite Delivery Contract V255PV150335 — with five task orders totaling $106 thousand combined potential value. The organization's work profile centers on outpatient mental health and substance abuse services (six awards), behavioral and mental health services delivery (four awards), and long-term care services (two awards), serving predominantly rural, underinsured, and uninsured populations experiencing homelessness, mental illness, substance use disorders, and suicide risk.
