Overview

Mission

Central Virginia alliance for community living, inc. (cvacl) envisions a community where all individuals, regardless of age or disability, maintain independence, dignity, equal rights, and a meaningful life based on their own personal choices.

What it reported doing in 2024

Senior supportive services program: we provided 7,671 units of checking, information contacts, referrals, personal care, care coordination and transition services to seniors, to ensure they receive the assistance needed to remain in their own homes. We provided caregiver training, options counseling, insurance counseling, and balance, exercise and dealing with dementia classes. We also provided elder abuse and prevention services including advocacy and ombudsman services, and long-term care facility mediation services for the elderly and their families. We transported seniors, who had no other means of transportation, to and from doctors, dentists, medical treatment facilities, banks, grocers, and other destinations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 84% 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.
  • 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
