Mission
California human development is a private, federally recognized 501(c)3 organization and we exist to create paths and opportunities for people to rise above barriers in their pursuit of better lives throughout our northern california 31-county service area. The programs administered by california human development all center on the principle of creating paths and opportunities for those seeking greater self-sufficiency, independence and dignity for themselves and their families.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Farmworker services - as part of the workforce innovation and opportunity act, we provide job training and placement to low-income migrant and seasonal farmworkers throughout northern california. We have provided this service since 1967 and have placed thousands of farmworkers into permanent, non-seasonal jobs. We also operate three training centers that provide hands-on vocational training in areas such as truck driving, welding, and construction. Our primary partners in this effort are the u.s. Department of labor, america's job centers of california, la cooperativa campesina de california, the many employers who hire our trainees, and numerous local non-profit and public partners that help ensure that our services are effective and holistic. Additionally, we are interested in supporting training initiatives that will help customers start their own businesses including microenterprise development. We begin our relationship with clients by asking what their individual desires and needs are; we then develop a support plan to reach these goals. We ensure that individuals, and where relevant their family members, are fully engaged as active participants in developing personalized…

Chd owns two properties: mahal plaza, a usda financed 98-unit project in yuba city, and aytch plaza, a california hcd financed 11-unit project in lake county (the poorest county in california). Additionally, our sister agency, north bay human development corporation (nbhdc) owns parkway plaza in fairfield, a 100-unit senior hud 202 financed project. There are currently three properties under chd management. Additionally, chd manages 180 beds of seasonal housing in three farmworker housing centers in napa. This project is unique in that the operation of these centers is funded through a combination of worker fees, contributions from vineyard growers through an assessment district, and active participation from the napa county housing commission and the st. Helena farmworker committee.

The intent of csbg is to develop and support local initiatives, targeting community needs that are under-represented in the current delivery system within local communities. Chd's community services division is dedicated to strengthening our communities and helping our region's at-risk residents achieve and maintain safer, healthier, and more productive lives. The division delivers several localized and unique services including naturalization and citizenship assistance, residential services to affordable housing residents, and local grass-roots day labor centers for under-employed workers. All these programs offer a holistic approach to addressing the needs of traditionally under-served families and communities. Innovative and established methods are utilized to deliver services that enhance socio-economic outcomes for fragile communities.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2022 to 2023, from $9.4M to $17M (+79%).
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: 2020 76% · 2021 79% · 2022 76% · 2023 53% · 2024 84% · 2025 84%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
84% of CALIFORNIA HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (21% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base held at 7 funders, grant income fell $2.3M → $1.7M.
3 of 26 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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 CALIFORNIA HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 24 of 26 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
CALIFORNIA HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 85% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
95% 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 CALIFORNIA HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 69% · 2018 88% · 2019 92% · 2020 90% · 2021 88% · 2022 98% · 2023 90% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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 long its funders stay
31% of CALIFORNIA HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 42% give in more than one year at all.
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
97% of CALIFORNIA HUMAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION's grant income comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $277k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
