Overview

Mission

Since 1965, we have been linking people with jobs by providing career planning, training and job placement assistance. We specialize in preparing individuals to enter the workforce, while meeting a critical need of the business community.

What it reported doing in 2024

Job point's intermediate carpentry trade program participates in the youthbuild & americorps programs and receives funding from community development block grants. Homes are built by participants for purchase by those at or below 80% of the county median income level, which addresses the affordable housing deficit. First time home buyers are given preference, and up to 20% of the purchase price may be provided in down payment assistance. Youthbuild assists disadvantaged youth to advance their educational levels, obtain construction skills, develop leadership abilities and advance in a high demand occupation. Americorps's mission is to provide pathways to opportunity for young people entering the workforce.

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.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and expenses are high relative to revenue.
