Overview

Mission

Scholastic Interest Group's mission is to mentor youth ages 12-18 that are involved in the Juvenile Justice System in the San Francisco Bay Area and to assist them with preparation for release and successful completion of probation.

What it reported doing in 2025

SIG has been awarded City and County of San Francisco contracts to work with released youth from the Juvenile Probation Department. SIG provides services to help youth get set up with housing and provide monthly assistance paying bills so they can focus on adjusting back into their community and avoid reincarceration.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
