Overview

Mission

Create a healthy just resilient and trauma-informed society where all individuals families and communities have the social political cultural economic and spiritual opportunities and support necessary to thrive.

What it reported doing in 2025

We supported the trauma-informed movement adjusting to federal changes.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
