Overview

Mission

To present and support a new vision in the American West: That sustainable environmental and economic health are interdependent and synergistic.

What it reported doing in 2020

Artemis produces Home Ground Radio whose purpose is to encourage in-depth dialogue about our regions past, present and future during this time of important and unsettling change, and to help Montana citizens develop informed views about the choices that will determine our future. Via thirty-minute conversations with leading citizens, business leaders, professionals, public officials, cultural leaders, and everyday citizens, Home Ground presents topics ranging from Montana history, literature and art to new challenges facing our education system, the economy and the broader world in a time of globalization.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
