The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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.
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: 2018 32% · 2019 34% · 2020 39% · 2021 51% · 2022 30% · 2023 40% · 2024 36%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
72% of DALLAS CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY CENTER’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (21% for the typical peer).

Left out of every figure on this page: $120k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Dallas Children's Advocacy Center Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money DALLAS CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY CENTER raised.
From the IRS filings of DALLAS CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY CENTER’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 166 funders by total. Association, not causation.

How concentrated its funding is
DALLAS CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY CENTER leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 74%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
86% 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 DALLAS CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY CENTER.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 73% · 2018 81% · 2019 65% · 2020 63% · 2021 52% · 2022 74% · 2023 73% — 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.
How long its funders stay
39% of DALLAS CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY CENTER's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 51% 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

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $4.8M arriving through sponsors registered in 19 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.
