Overview

Mission

Interval house is dedicated to ending domestic violence and providing services that will prevent and break the cycle of family and intimate partner abuse.

What it reported doing in 2024

Volunteer / community education program: community education- the mission of interval house is to prevent and end domestic violence. A key component is the community education and public relations program which provides both information and education about domestic violence and interval house to the 24 towns served. The program also builds and maintains positive relationships within our community and within our catchment area. Efforts are continually made to reach into the community through the use of both staff and volunteers working with schools, civic groups, the faith community and professional organizations to raise awareness of domestic violence and its impact on our society. Volunteer program - at interval house, we respect and rely on the work of our volunteers. We have an active and varied group of volunteers in the community that provide both direct and non-direct services to the agency. All direct service volunteers, those who have contact with clients, are required to undergo an intense 20 hour training on domestic violence and are certified as domestic violence counselors. Volunteers in non-direct services assist in the daily clerical, maintenance, and special event activities that do not require contact with our clients.

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 91% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

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