Overview

Mission

To act as a bridge between Parents and childrens

What it reported doing in 2023

Kids bridge is a supervised visitation center that acts as a bridge between parents and childrens for st johns, flagler, putnam, duval and sorrounding counties.

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 the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
