Programs
DOC - Reparative and Offender Reentry accounts for 36% of total program services. The Reparative Program at the Community Restorative Justice Center (CRJC) works with people referred to attend a reparative process that addresses taking responsibility for their crime(s), making amends to victims and affected parties, making amends to the community, and working on a plan to avoid future. Roughly 35 volunteers make up restorative panels to work with offenders on these goals. A program coordinator and a victim liaison make up the staff that run this program. The Offender Reentry Program at the CRJC coordinates "Cirlcles of Support and Accountability" (CoSA). The CoSA participants are supervisees reentering the community after incarceration. They meet once a week for a year with their CoSA as a means of better reintegrating into the community. Roughly 35 volunteers give time to this program as well. A Reentry Coordinator runs this program. The Coordinator also provides navigation services for other people under supervision that helps with needed services in the community.
$229,333 spent33% of program spendingCourt Diversion accounts for 31% of total program services. Court Diversion is a restorative alternative to the court process. The state's attorney may offer Diversion to adults or youth who are charged with committing a crime (or youth charged with being delinquent). After successful completion of the program, the original charge is dismissed. Also under Diversion is the civil and criminal DLS (Drivingwith License Suspended) Program. This program helps people regain their Vermont driver's license while they off their fines and fees. Participants work with Diversion staff to develop a contract and payment plan. After the Vermont Judicial Bureau approves the contract - and other Department of Motor Vehicles requirements are met, the person's driver's license is reinstated. Also under Diversion is the Youth Substance Safety Awareness Program YSASP). This Program holds young people accountable for breaking underage drinking laws, educates them about the consequences and risks of alcohol, and identifies youth with potential substance abuse problems so they may receive treatment. The program is a voluntary alternative to a $300 fine and 90-day driver's license suspension. Pre-Trial…

The remaining 1.1% of program services ($6,341) goes to other smaller programs like the Parking Ticket Appeal Board and the community fridge that supplies free food to people who are homeless or unable to afford food.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2023 to 2024, from $69k to $161k (+134%).
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: 2021 75% · 2022 81% · 2023 90% · 2024 92% · 2025 86%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
98% of COMMUNITY RESTORATIVE JUSTICE CENTER INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (94% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $6k → $7k.
3 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 83% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
COMMUNITY RESTORATIVE JUSTICE CENTER INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 78% of grant income and the top three 96%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 COMMUNITY RESTORATIVE JUSTICE CENTER INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“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.
Where its funders are
83% of COMMUNITY RESTORATIVE JUSTICE CENTER INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $22k that is directly attributable, 68% of it comes from Vermont funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $106k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
