Overview

Mission

To improve the well-being of Nevada families by providing respite to families caring for your and adult children with special needs.

What it reported doing in 2024

Family Respite Care of Nevada (FRCN) provides respite care for caregivers of children and young adult aged 3 months to 28 year old with disabilities, special health care needs, persons in foster care, and their siblings. Respite services are provided by respite staff and trained youth volunteers and are available to families residing in Nevada. By providing temporary emotional relief from the constant care and loving attention our families provide essentially to their children, we are allowing a reprieve that strenthens the quality of care parents and guardians deliver. Program services include the Family Center care sessions, recreational activities that allow for social interaction, various classes, summer camp, and physical adventures to more than 175 children during the year ended June 30, 2025.

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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
