Overview

Mission

Help the abused and neglected children of Bexar County.

What it reported doing in 2024

Counseling services-children, adolescents, and their non-offending family members recovering from the effects of childhood abuse are traumatized long after the abuse has ended. Their victims know more than 97% of the alleged perpetrators involved in child abuse investigation, and often the abuser is someone the child or family members care about or trust. As a result, child abuse victims struggle to establish trust, respect, confidence and a sense of security and control in their lives, and families are often torn apart. Childsafe provides a continuum of care to child victims of abuse and neglect and their supportive family members through counseling services. This crisis and long-term therapy is available to the child victims, their siblings, and all supportive family members to help with healing. Counseling may also include play therapy or adventure therapy and is provided by counselors trained in trauma treatment. The children we work with come to us with low self-esteem, feeling isolated and different from other children. Counseling services allow us to provide the needed treatment and support to ensure the healing process can occur.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 82% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
