Case Study: Spanish Peaks Behavioral Health Centers achieves major time savings and increased productivity with Abila MIP Fund Accounting

Increased Productivity Means More Time to Focus on the Mission

Spanish Peaks Behavioral Health Centers is a nonprofit in Pueblo, Colorado, that has provided behavioral health and addiction services to its community for more than 50 years, serving clients regardless of ability to pay. The organization struggled with a legacy accounting system that made data imports and report creation slow and labor-intensive, forcing staff to spend excessive time on manual data entry and mining instead of programs.

By adopting Abila MIP Fund Accounting for general ledger, billing and reporting, Spanish Peaks gained an easy-to-use system that produces financial reports in minutes rather than months, streamlines data imports, and frees staff to focus on client services. The time savings enabled new projects, improved program management (including handling finances for 170 clients), and prompted interest in adding payroll—while Abila provided responsive support.
