Overview
Mission
To lead the effort in preventing domestic & sexual violence through empowerment and social change by providing community outreach education, crisis intervention, advocacy, counseling, legal services, emergency shelter and transitional housing.
What it reported doing in 2024
Counseling & sexual assault programs. The sexual assault program provides 24 hour a day crisis response, support, information and referral to survivors and their families. The counseling program utilizes a strengths based approach to empower survivors to find the courage to reclaim a sense of control while maintaining their dignity. Survivors benefit from compassion and support as they heal and rebuild their lives.
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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
