Overview

Mission

To provide affordable housing.

What it reported doing in 2024

Turnagain arms community housing's mission is to benefit low income residents to provide affordable housing projects. The corporation's interest is that of lender to the projects, as well as, contracting for services provided to residents of the projects.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 86% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
