Overview

Mission

Promote integration, economic self-sufficiency, and positive connections among refugees, immigrants, and the wider community through two-way education, improved access to existing services, and development of new services.

What it reported doing in 2024

RESETTLEMENT: CRIC's resettlement program worked with newly arriving refugees placed by the State Department to help them settle and integrate into their new life in the U.S. Also known as reception and placement, CRIC administered this program as an official resettlement affiliate of the international nonprofit organization, Church World Services. Associated funding through the state of Utah provided capacity for required health screenings during the first 90 days of each arrivals' time in the U.S. as well as other health promotion activities. Our responsibilities included administering case-specific direct assistance funding to secure and set-up housing in advance of case arrivals, coordinating airport arrivals and school enrollments, navigating paperwork, scheduling medical appointments, providing cultural orientations, and more.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 86% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 86% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
