Overview

Mission

Transforming generations' mission is to organize, educate, and transform cultural and power dynamic to end gender-based violence. We believe the community can change practices, behaviors, and beliefs to end violence and build safe, strong, and thriving families.

What it reported doing in 2024

Health and wellness this program area provides domestic abuse intervention and educational services in group or individual settings, for those who have used violence, committed act(s) of domestic abuse, sexual violence, or abusive international marriages or relationships against an intimate partner, family member, or household member. This program area also offers therapy services or counseling to people who have experienced violence based on their sexual orientation, gender identity/expression. This program area provides development opportunities for those who have used violence or caused harm to gain insight and awareness about their behaviors and its impact on others. Referral to this program is made through schools, county or local law enforcement agencies, legal organizations, or through self-referrals. Referrals may also be court-ordered to complete domestic abuse programming as a condition of sentencing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 72% 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
