What Crittenton Youth Services Inc does
Mission
Crittenton youth services, inc. Is located in mobile, alabama. The mission is to provide instruction to youth ages 10-14 in school classrooms or youth sites on the emotional and social skills that help youth learn to cope and become resilient in stressful and everyday life situations. High school juniors or seniors with good character and a desire to help their peers are nominated in 14 schools and interviewed by the crittenton staff. Approximately 40 are chosen to be ambassadors who teach the curriculum, health smarts, in the classrooms with our adult instructor.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Health smarts had a total of 1400 participants from september to april who participated in 7 sessions of instruction. Two ambassadors who need to earn extra money during the summer can be hired to teach in the summer youth sites with an adult instructor. Six summer sites such as boys and girls clubs, church youth groups, participate in the summer health smarts program. Auburn university measures the success of our program each year by comparing the youth pre and post-test data. Our results indicated that our participant sample scored higher in each of the 7 target areas which included: emotion knowledge, self confidence, social competence, commitment to avoid risky behavior, cooperative behavior, abuse awareness and resourcefulness. The average magnitude of the effect size for the improvements was a large effect on the youth participants ages 11-13.

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 2018 to 2019, from $95k to $27k (−72%).
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 76% · 2018 72% · 2019 52% · 2021 63%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of CRITTENTON YOUTH SERVICES INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 6 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

59% 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 CRITTENTON YOUTH SERVICES INC.
