What Brilliant Light International does
Mission
Trauma-informed recovery programs for incarcerated women and survivors of human trafficking and domestic violence.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
This program provides a team of trauma-trained women in ministry to serve in Arizona State Prison every week to provide trauma-informed church services in the most under-served sections of Perryville womens prison. We go where others are not serving including the Mental Health Units inside the Perryville Prison in addition to Lumley and San Pedro prison units. We provide a place where women in prison can feel safe accepted loved valued and heard. It is only from a place of safety and compassion that someone will take the risk of making real changes from the inside out: life transformation and break the generational patterns that held them back for so long and be successful integrating into community on the outside. Total of 2,158 incarcerated women served inside Arizona State Prison Perryville.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $7k to $21k (+211%).
