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 2020 to 2021, from $481k to $712k (+48%).

Government-grant reliance: 2022 95% · 2023 96% · 2024 96% · 2025 94%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
98% 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 CHILD CARE RESOURCE CENTER INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 93% · 2021 100% · 2022 97% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
