Overview

Mission

Senior Services of Rock County, Inc. is a non-profit social service organization that mobilizes and matches community volunteers and resources with persons-in-need who are 60 years and older. These supportive/supplementary services help the aging maintain their in-home residential independence and enhance their quality of life in a dignified manner.

What it reported doing in 2016

Stop Gap Registry and Home Repair Registry sends in screened, qualified workers to provide supportive home care to our clients who reside in Rock County, WI and receive county assistance; these workers are our employees and/or independent contractors and we refer them to clients homes to provide assistance on a scheduled basis. They provide such tasks as cooking, cleaning, vacuuming, run errands, assist with bathing, laundry, and home repair chores such as mowing and shovelling, etc. We pay our workers semi-monthly and bill the county or private long-term care insurance monthly at a higher rate which produces the revenue to run this program and cover administrative costs.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 94% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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.
