Overview

Mission

To prevent and reduce homelessness through advocacy, housing, job training employment, and through working in partnership with the community.

What it reported doing in 2024

The drop in day center provides case management services, refreshments, showers, laundry facilities, telephone and computer access, and referral services to treat homelessness. The organization's one-stop community development center restores and builds lives through its job training, employment placement and housing initiatives, and more. The twenty (20) weeks culinary and eighteen (18) weeks janitorial/ construction curricula are licensed by the department of independent education through the state of Florida and environment that will prepare them for a career in these industries. The organization is certified with the national center for construction education and research.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 81% 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 most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
