Overview

Mission

Supporting reStart Inc. by providing permanent housing for young adults

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization operates a residential facility with 15 units located in Kansas City Missouri for very low-income youth who have aged out of foster care and have mental health diagnosis. One unit is nonrevenue producing. The facility was constructed from funds provided by a capital advance grant under section 811 of the National Affordable Housing Act and is regulated by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 100% of the money available for current operations came from other operating 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. Some related-organization disclosures are missing and expenses are high relative to revenue.
