Overview

Mission

Cohome is a nonprofit pioneering a unique, mainstream coliving model where adults of all abilities share everyday life in a supportive, community-oriented home. Residents live independently, participate in household life, and build authentic friendships, without the restrictions of traditional programs or facilities.

What it reported doing in 2025

Advanced disability inclusion by providing coliving housing to 10 neurodiverse individuals and engaging over 100 others through outreach and volunteer initiatives.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
