Mission

Provide assistance to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault by providing crisis intervention, shelter, personal support, systems advocacy and other services. USAFV also provides advocacy, support, and other services to people experiencing other types of life crises.

What it reported doing in 2024

Homeless Prevention USAFV serves those who are homeless or in danger of becoming homeless by providing past-due rent and utility assistance; assistance with deposits, first and last months rent, and utility deposits; and other assistance associated with securing safe, permanent housing. Homeless prevention services also include paying for temporary lodging at facilities other than USAFV for people who are unable to come to, or inappropriate to come to, the USAFV shelter.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 70% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 96% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

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.
