Overview

Mission

Janney Plus offers child care and enrichment options through Janney Auxillary Care, Janney Enrichment Programs and Janney Language Programs.

What it reported doing in 2024

Janney offers different care and enrichment options. Janney Auxillary Care (JAC) provides students with supervised, semi-structured recreation and homework time, before and after school. The Janney Enrichment Program (JEP) provides structured classes after school. The Janney Elementary Language Program (JELP) offers strutured language immersion classes before and after school. Program staff work together to ensure that students are supervised and move safely between each program.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
