Overview

Mission

To reach youth with scientifically accurate medical information that is helping restore value to every aspect of their lives; physically, emotionally, sexually, and educationally.

What it reported doing in 2025

Reality check, inc. Provided programs to nearly 10,000 students per year in grades 5th and up in person and online. One of the goals of reality check, inc.'s programs is the elimination/avoidance of negative risk to achieve optimal health and well being of the person. We also offer a program called project 479 and we work with over 150 at-risk teens on a daily basis. Our staff and trusted volunteers work one-on-one with youth to provide training in skill development. These skills range from as simple as sewing on a button to as complex as developing a product and starting their own business. We provide students a safe place where they can come to be creative, while learning skills that can help them move out of poverty and become community minded. This allows them to gain confidence, learn healthy behaviors, and create a strong work ethic that teaches them how to be self-sustainable and to build stronger families and a safer community.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 94% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
