Program
In 2023, the agency furthered the 2022 momentum from expansion to strengthen capacities serving the big bend area transgender communities. Strategically utilizing funds received to enhance operations and secure dedicated office spaces. With the spaces came the added community benefit of critically safe havens that function as supportive and welcoming environments for clients. Having a fixed and permanent physical location, with office spaces deepened community connections. Providing a place where bipoc tlgbqia+ program development and delivery is a key focus. Moreover, individuals feel empowered, safe, and supported while having ready access to resources, including job search assistance, rsum-building, or a refuge from daunting challenges. In 2024, there was a need to bolster development and implement a branch of direct support services embracing urgent needs. Accordingly, to alleviate immediate hardships; there was increased access to clothing, emergency financial assistance, and food. The efforts included ensuring those in crisis had access to essential housing instability support: rental assistance and emergency hotel stays (when needed).

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 $67k to $35k (−48%).

From the IRS filings of CAPITAL TEA 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.
How concentrated its funding is

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
71% 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 CAPITAL TEA INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2022 83% · 2023 85% — 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. $20k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
