Overview
Mission
The Interfaith Shelter Network of San Diego (the Organization) is a non-profit, public benefit corporation, incorporated on August 1, 2010 (formerly Ecumenical Council of San Diego County, incorporated April 24, 1970), under the laws of the state of California, to work collaboratively, through its Rotational Shelter Program, with local human service agencies, local governments and local congregations to provide winter shelters and other services and resources to homeless individuals and families at congregational shelter sites throughout the San Diego region.
What it reported doing in 2024
El nido ("the nest") is a transitional living program for homeless victims of domestic violence and their children. Located in central san diego, in a confidential site for safety reasons, the program offers stability in housing while allowing the residents to offer emotional support to each other and less isolation during this stressful time in their lives. It also is respectful of residents' autonomy and provides as close to a real-life scenario as possible. Residents live in an 11-unit apartment complex for up to a year or more and, with the assistance of social workers, obtain the counseling, child care, employment, educational, and transportation services they need to become self-sufficient. Each of the units was fully furnished by a local congregation.
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.
- 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
