Overview

Mission

To provide teens and young adults with affordable, timely and culturally competent direct clinical care and educational outreach services.

What it reported doing in 2013

Clinical services - since 2000, taya has filled a critical gap in healthcare for an extremely vulnerable population in the Washington, dc metropolitan area - primarily young women of color unable to access or afford care in traditional medical settings. Taya's clinical services include physicals, health education, sexually transmitted infections testing, treatment and counseling, contraception counseling and dispensing, gynecological exams, emergency contraception, cervical and breast cancer screenings, vaccines, and pregnancy testing and counseling. Since its first year in operation, the number of patients served has grown from 500 to over 3,000 unique patients in fiscal year 2013. The majority of taya's clients live at or below 150 percent of the federal poverty level, qualifying them for services at either a low or no cost.

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.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
