Overview

Mission

Wesleyan Youth is dedicated to connecting children and teens in the foster care system to the parents they need, providing training, support, and guidance to help prospective foster families create or expand their foster family; support continues throughout their foster care journey together so the goal is to create strong families and provide the best possible support for the youth and families they serve.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 99% 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 filed totals do not add up and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
