Overview

Mission

Serving children who are victims of neglect and abuse.

What it reported doing in 2024

Safe harbor child advocacy center serves as the central hub for the collaboration of all investigative efforts of the child protective investigative team (cpit) into alleged incidents of child abuse or neglect. Following the investigative efforts, the child-victim and non-offending family members will have follow-up individualized therapy coordinated through safe harbor. Working with law enforcement, child protective services, specially trained medical and mental health providers, and our district attorney general's office, our goal is to make the process of providing the coordination of necessary services in a child-focused and child-friendly home-like setting for our most vulnerable victimized citizens gentler and less traumatic for our children who have suffered so much.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 65% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% 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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
