Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
