What Crossroads Rhode Island does
Mission
The core mission of the organization is to assist homeless or at-risk individuals and families secure stable homes. This is accomplished by providing a range of services including housing, basic needs, shelter, case management, referrals, education and employment services.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Shelter and assessment - housing problem solving is a relatively new, effective and low-cost intervention that can help prevent some at-risk people from becoming homelessand helps others get out of shelter and into housing quickly and cost effectively. Housing problem solving combines creative, solutions-oriented brainstorming with a small amount of cash assistance that helps people explore their housing options. Solutions vary from client to client but include things like security deposits and utility arrears. In 2024, crossroads distributed more than $900,000, providing an average of $2,256 in cash assistance per household. As a result, we helped more than 2,200 at-risk individuals and families either prevent or quickly end their homelessness. When homelessness can't be prevented or quickly ended, temporary emergency shelter is sometimes needed as a short-term solution. In 2024, crossroads operated five shelters with more than 200 beds, including harrington hall, the largest men's shelter in the state, a women's shelter, family shelter, domestic violence shelter and hartford avenue, the state's only couples shelter. With homelessness at a record high, crossroads provided nearly…

As a result, we were able to help more than 2,500 people, including 61 domestic violence survivors, end their homelessness last year. Of those, 340 households received up to 24 months of rental assistance and case management support through our rapid rehousing program, which allowed them to move into market-rate apartments statewide. Another 732 households moved into permanent supportive housing, primarily into properties that crossroads owns. These apartments are deeply subsidized, allowing for extremely low or no-income residents to live safely with the housing-based services and support they needfor as long as they need.to help address rhode island's critical shortage of affordable housing, construction of the summer street apartments is also well underway. When complete in the fall of 2025, more than 176 formerly homeless adults will have a beautiful and affordable place to call home, making summer street the…

In 2024, 204 people participated in one or more programs designed to help them increase their reading and math skills, work towards getting their high school equivalency, improve their financial literacy, train for a new career or look for a job. Of those, 67 clients found new employment. We are particularly proud of our certified nurse assistant (cna) program, which has graduated nearly 160 classes since we began offering the program in the 1990s. In 2024, 70 students enrolled in our cna program and more than 34 of those graduates are working in hospitals, nursing homes and home health care organizations today.

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 2022 to 2023, from $40M to $56M (+39%).
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 66% · 2018 45% · 2019 61% · 2020 67% · 2021 73% · 2022 49% · 2023 61% · 2024 68%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
105% of CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (21% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 30 funders to 80 funders, grant income rose $719k → $1.9M.
16 of 147 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 16% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $12M from 10 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest The Rhode Island Community Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND raised.
From the IRS filings of CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 147 funders by total. 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
CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 7 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 7 funders to its left
44% 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 CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 36% · 2018 54% · 2019 35% · 2020 26% · 2021 28% · 2022 27% · 2023 15% — diversifying over time.
“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.
How long its funders stay
56% of CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 68% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
62% of CROSSROADS RHODE ISLAND's grant income comes from Rhode Island funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.3M arriving through sponsors registered in 14 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.
