The representative payeeship program is a stabilization program that manages benefits for individuals who are incapable of managing their own finances. Typically, these individuals receive supplemental security income (a federal income supplement program to assist aged, blind, and disabled people who have little or no income). The first choice for a payee would be a family member or trusted friend, but for some individuals, no appropriate person is available. Representative payeeship is a less restrictive protective service than guardianship, and the courts are not involved.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $990k to $1.5M (+49%).
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 34% · 2018 36% · 2019 28% · 2020 43% · 2021 40% · 2022 36% · 2023 34% · 2024 38%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
