Overview

Mission

Finish Strong's PK REACH program is designed around five evidence-based resilience-building practices that support the holistic development of all youth, and specifically those affected by trauma: exposing participants to healthy relationships with peers and adults, promoting self-esteem and self-efficacy, creating safe spaces that reduce risk of harm, offering exposure to new learning opportunities, and presenting opportunities for problem-solving and critical thinking. 147 unique youth who reside in the City of Poughkeepsie, NY, Dutchess County, were served in 2022. Demographics consist of: 55% Black, 40% Latino, 5% two or more races; 60% ages 6 to 13 years old; 40% ages 14 - 18 years old; 96% of the families served lived at or below the poverty line. All services provided to youth and families are free.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 76% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
