What Cross Cultural Health Care Program does
Mission
Our mission is to serve as a bridge between communities and health care institutions to advance access to quality health care that is culturally and linguistically appropriate.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
The bridging the gap (btg) medical interpreter training program was the first 40-hour training program of its kind. The Cross Cultural Health Care Program's btg program set the standard on how to best train individuals to be professional medical interpreters. Btg is taught in english and is open to bilingual speakers of all languages. Btg prepares students with the foundational skills and specialized information to become an effective, culturally competent, and professional medical interpreter. We offer a 40-hour and a 64-hour btg course. We also offer a 24-hour btg course that focuses on interpreting in mental health settings, as well as a 24-hour cultural navigator in health care course. Training of trainer (tot) programs are available for these courses.

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 2019 to 2020, from $1.4M to $1.3M (−6%).
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: 2024 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
3% of CROSS CULTURAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (82% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 12% 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 CROSS CULTURAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
CROSS CULTURAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM leans on a few funders — its largest provides 88% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 99% · 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
100% of CROSS CULTURAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM's grant income comes from Washington funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $133 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
