Overview
Mission
Our mission is to end child abuse and neglect through educating, advocating, and counseling to empower and strengthen children and families. Our vision is that all children live in a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment.
What it reported doing in 2024
Family resource centers (FRC's) FRC's are one-stop, umbrella programs that offer a wide variety of family support and social services to residents in need to include Spanish, mono/bilingual and bicultural communities. KidsFirst served nearly 4,500 and provided outreach to over 10,000 individuals for Western/Southern Placer County. Target populations who are underserved or who do not otherwise have access to services. FRC staff link families with emergency services including basic needs and resources (food, shelter, clothing, and transportation) and other support services such as employment, health, mental health, and health care access to address current needs and provide a foundation for achieving stability.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 86% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
