What it reported doing in 2024

Education and prevention services programthese services are primarily made up of the following programs: 1.) the community advocacy program is a primary prevention program that focuses on education and training programs for the community and with elementary, middle, high, and college aged students on sexual assault, dating violence, and domestic violence.

The program significantly reduces problem behaviors.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 99% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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 available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
