Overview

Mission

Programs benefiting the developmentally disabled for self-sufficiency and independent living

What it reported doing in 2024

Operations of programs for developmentally disabled adults. Programs provide group home settings in addition to providing prevocational training in self-sufficiency and the skills needed for community living.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 96% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and some filed totals do not add up.
