Overview

Mission

To provide high quality and affordable child care, nutrition and other social services to low-income families.

What it reported doing in 2024

Child care and development programs - Long Beach Community Improvement League operated its two facilities 248 days during fiscal year end June 30, 2025, providing 7,593 days of enrollment to certified families and 693 days of enrollment to non-certified families needing child care and development.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 81% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
