Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 70% for direct work, and 30% for grants.

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration and the available information about grant readiness automatic revocation leaves an important question unanswered.
