BERRIEN-CASS-VANBUREN WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD INC

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.

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 90% · 2018 92% · 2019 80% · 2020 73% · 2021 70% · 2022 73% · 2023 73% · 2024 92% · 2025 87%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
