Overview
Mission
YouTurn offers support and resources to break the cycle of poverty, reduce violence and trauma and promote positive behavior change leading to resiliency, healthier families and safer communities.
What it reported doing in 2024
YouTurn creates opportunities for adolescents and young adults ages 12-25 to break the cycle of violence and to lead productive lives in our community. These opportunities are created through our Womens Violence Prevention and Make a 180 School and Street Outreach programs. Evidenced based curriculum is used (to create a risk reduction plan) to faciliate motivational conversations with adolesent and young adults to promote positive thoughts, positivie feelings and positive behaviors. Another unique component of these Outreach programs is that participants are offered screening for behavioral/mental health care and referred for treatment as necessary to promote healing. Additionally, participants are referred to collaborative community partners for additional assessed needs to include building employment skills and job placement. In 2024 YouTurn served 124 active program participants.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 78% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
