Humankind provides adults with intellectual disabilities services through residential homes in a family setting. Services are provided regardless of medicaid waiver funding support in five communities across the state: fredericksburg, lexington, south hill, stuarts draft, and lynchburg.

Residents are also provided with social, cultural, entertainment, and other activities, so they remain a part of the communities where they live and gain full and enriching life experiences. Services are offered through both group home and sponsored home environments. More information can be found at www.humankind.org

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 65% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and assets have declined or grown slowly.
