01What it does

What At the Crossroads does

Mission

Atc reaches out to homeless youth and young adults and works with them to build healthy fulfilling lives. We remove common barriers to service by bringing our counselors onto the streets and shaping our support services around the needs of each individual client.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

  1. Our direct service work is composed of street outreach, one-on-one counseling and food and supply support. Across all of our services, atc disseminated approximately $145,000 worth of supplies, including hot meals, fresh groceries, food boxes from our food pantry, hygiene and harm reduction supplies, and clothing in fy25. Outreach currently occurs two nights a week. Counselors walk the streets of the downtown/tenderloin area and offer much-needed supplies like snacks, hygiene items, and socks. When they see us night after night, individuals slowly begin to trust us and turn to us for support. Atc made 1,560 contacts with approximately 175 young people through street outreach over the last fiscal year. One-to-one counseling is the next level of our services at atc. Counselors meet with individuals during the daytime with the goal of developing healthy, long-term, unconditionally supportive relationships. Through the relationships we help clients identify and achieve their personal goals, developing the tools and plans to make them happen. This may include connecting clients with other agencies that can assist in meeting their needs for example housing attainment, employment…

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.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 33 funders to 17 funders, grant income fell $912k → $316k.

14 of 68 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 50% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of AT THE CROSSROADS’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 68 funders by total. 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.

How concentrated its funding is

AT THE CROSSROADS has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 12% of grant income, and it takes 7 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 7 funders to its left

55% 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 AT THE CROSSROADS.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

How long its funders stay

37% of AT THE CROSSROADS's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 65% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Where its funders are

50% of AT THE CROSSROADS's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $2.7M that is directly attributable, 70% of it comes from California funders.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.7M arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.
