Overview

Mission

Mocsa exists to improve the lives of those impacted by sexual abuse and assualt and to prevent sexual violence in our community.

What it reported doing in 2024

Education and prevention - mocsa offers education, prevention programs, training, and outreach efforts to youth and adults in the six county Kansas city metropolitan region. This free programming is delivered in schools, professional settings, bars and restaurants, churches and community events. These activities, reaching over 73,577 individuals in 2024 alone, help raise awareness and understanding of sexual violence, and educate the public on each of our roles in preventing future incidents of sexual abuse and assault. 99% of students reported that they learned at least one thing they can do to prevent or reduce the risk of sexual violence.

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 99% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
