Overview
Mission
Americorps st. Louis is a nonprofit based in the soulard neighborhood of st. Louis, mo. Originally founded as "partnership for youth, inc." which remains our legal name, our program has adapted over the years to meet community needs. Our emergency response team (ert) has three areas of focus: environmental conservation, wildland fire, and disaster response. Responding to natural disasters when we are called is our first priority, while conservation projects are maintained throughout the year. Additionally, acstl provides homelessness services including weekly daytime shelter and emergency overnight winter shelter to unhoused individuals in our community.
What it reported doing in 2024
Americorps member experience: supported by a federal americorps grant and fee-for-service partner agreements, americorps st. Louis (acstl) hosts 40+ fulltime americorps members for an 11-month (1,700 service hour) national service term focused on environmental conservation, wildland fire, and disaster response. Acstl supports members with a living allowance, food budget, gear / equipment, and industry-relevant trainings / certifications. As a career pathway, members are well-positioned to accept positions of leadership in conservation and emergency management agencies upon exit from the program. Over its 30 year history, acstl members have served more than 3 million hours across Missouri, Illinois, Montana and other disaster-impacted states. In the 2024-25 program year, the following outputs were recorded: 2,002 trees felled, 1,575 acres of invasive species treated, 1,302 trees planted, 340 miles of trail constructed, 14,842 acres of prescribed burn and 318 acres of wildfire response.
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.
- 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and liabilities are high compared with assets.
