Overview

Mission

To enhance and enrich the lives of people with disabilities by employing and empowering them in their communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

Day program options offered at a 1to4 staff to consumer ratio - unyeway, inc. Also offers adult development center program and community based program options at a 1to4 staff to consumer ratio. Our adult development center 1to4 program is similar to the adult development center 1to3 program, except that the nursing programs are not offered. Instead, a retirement and social community and leisure component, an outdoor work area at the lakeside site only, as well as a traditional center based program are offered. The community based program 1to4 is different from the community based program 1to3, the primary focus of the 1to4 program is on participation in work activities and volunteerism.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 95% 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

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 liabilities are high compared with assets.
