Overview
Mission
To meet the needs of children and families in our community by providing a child focused center that is dedicated to healing, understanding and belief by using a collaborative approach to the identification, prevention, investigation, prosecution, and treatment of child abuse.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 87% 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 expenses are high relative to revenue.
