Program
The organization offers a full range of counseling services which support and promote personal growth, positive family relationships and emotional well-being. The organization provides short and long-term on-site and/or telehealth counseling in the outpatient clinic program for children, adolescents, individual adults, couples and families. Fees are based on a sliding scale as determined by income. Counselors conduct outreach and intervention sessions on school campuses, including emergency services, to approximately 30 south san jose schools. However, if students or counselors find themselves at home due to health issues, telehealth is an option. As well, telehealth is an option for speaking with parents. Parenting classes, including co-parenting classes, are offered quarterly. The organization provides training to therapists earning the hours needed for licensing, both to interns in master level clinical counseling and/or social work programs and to postgraduates of those programs.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $814k to $523k (−36%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 8% · 2021 17% · 2022 13%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

From the IRS filings of ALMADEN VALLEY COUNSELING SERVICE INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
81% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund ALMADEN VALLEY COUNSELING SERVICE INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 56% · 2021 50% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $48k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
