What Casa Youth Shelter does
Mission
We serve and nurture youth in crisis with shelter, counseling and support services, empowering them to come through their crisis with increased confidence, stability, and tools for continued growth.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
The goal of our residential shelter care program is to help residents stabilize their lives in order to reunify them with their families and instill the necessary skills to become active contributors to their communities. During the youth's stay at the shelter, we provide three nutritious meals a day with snacks and other basic needs such as hot showers, clean clothes and fresh linens for beds. Once residents' immediate needs are met, our professional counselors establish case management plans and work with residents to address both immediate crises and their underlying causes. Through both group and individual counseling, residents learn to develop the tools for self-sufficiency.our home is always open, 24 hours a day, so that any youth who find themselves on the streets at any hour can seek shelter. We are accessible during the day to school officials and social services and are also a resource for local law enforcement officers who rescue teens from the streets in the middle of the night and bring them to Casa Youth Shelter for safekeeping and counseling.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $2.2M to $3.0M (+35%).
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 17% · 2018 10% · 2019 9% · 2020 15% · 2021 18% · 2022 13% · 2023 13% · 2024 8% · 2025 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
91% of CASA YOUTH SHELTER’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (39% for the typical peer).

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 15 funders to 29 funders, grant income rose $309k → $770k.
14 of 79 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 14% 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 CASA YOUTH SHELTER’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 79 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
CASA YOUTH SHELTER has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 17% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
28% 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 CASA YOUTH SHELTER.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 32% · 2018 30% · 2019 29% · 2020 18% · 2021 17% · 2022 18% · 2023 16% — diversifying over time.
“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
55% of CASA YOUTH SHELTER's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 51% 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
93% of CASA YOUTH SHELTER's grant income comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $760k arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
