Overview

Mission

Provide a safe housing alternative for unaccompanied youth; to provide parental support during family crises; to provide parent/family education; to foster public awareness of the issue of youth and homelessness.

What it reported doing in 2024

This school year we had 2 youth graduate high school. We served 98 youth aged 14-24 and out of those young adults 25 were referred by dshs or state roviders. 95% of all participants of the emergency and transitional programs are provided wrap around case management services and supports both during and after their stay. 89% have gone into stable housing, 8% enter school, and 2% left for questionable housing. Ryans house staff maintains contact as we feel our support does not end upon their exit.

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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
