Mission

Social and educational programs for special needs youth

Donor-supported. 64% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and the available information about grant readiness automatic revocation leaves an important question unanswered.
