Overview

Mission

Employment of the disabled

What it reported doing in 2024

To furnish a facility & job training and administer incoming project work in order to provide meaningful employment opportunities for persons with disabilities. 60% - 70% of employees are disabled.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 87% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program 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.

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 some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
