As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Domestic Abuse Project (DAP) offers holistic, trauma informed care for every member of the family impacted by domestic violence. We focus on five pillars that address crisis resources, safety and stability, healing and learning tools for change, and violence prevention with the goal to interrupt the intergenerational cycle of abuse, serving 2,414 community members in FY24. To achieve our mission, we collaborate with systems partners and communities to provide access to services and responsiveness to the changing needs of our communities affected by domestic and intimate partner violence. DAP's therapeutic program areas include: Youth, Victims/Survivors, Intervention and Prevention, and First Call (see Schedule O).Youth and Early Childhood Programs The Youth and Early Childhood Program offers free therapeutic services to children who are seeking to heal from the effects of domestic violence.

  2. The Advocacy Program provides free legal assistance, safety planning, and support addressing safety requirements, along with immediate aid for victims of domestic abuse and their families seeking refuge. This encompasses both the delivery of direct services and the facilitation of client referrals to community resources such as shelters, legal aid, financial assistance, therapy, and case management. Our direct services include comprehensive safety planning, the preparation of Orders of Protection, attendance at criminal court arraignments and requested hearings, assistance with Minnesota Family Investment Program applications, lease terminations, lock changes, and Safe at Home screenings. Additionally, we offer financial support to address safety needs, including the provision of security cameras, new doors, lock modifications, and other low-cost resources. The Advocacy Program is also piloting a free legal clinic, linking participants with volunteer attorneys for one hour of consultation. During this fiscal year, we identified and trained volunteers and established the necessary logistics to launch this program in October 2024. In FY24, the Domestic Advocacy Program served 309…

  3. Case Management is a direct service that is provided to clients in need of support outside of therapy or advocacy with the goals of safety and stabilization. Case management services are client-centered, trauma-informed and are provided for the purpose of facilitating access to, coordinating, and ensuring holistic care. By using a holistic approach this service accommodates drop-in, intermediate, and long-term case management needs. Support services include assessing and supporting basic needs, mental health and medical health referrals, and other referrals to community resources. Developing partnerships in the community is essential to the success of the case management program, which included 12 tabling events, 4 community DV101 trainings and 3 community service events supporting a variety of communities. Case Management's partnership with Hennepin County strengthens wrap around services to victims of domestic abuse by administering Coordinated Entry Assessments to gain access to housing referrals that increase safety for victims fleeing violence. In FY24 DAP served 328 clients/families through our case management programs.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 11 funders to 17 funders, grant income fell $319k → $222k.

15 of 49 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 29% 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 Domestic Abuse Project Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 49 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

Domestic Abuse Project Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 13% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left

47% 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 Domestic Abuse Project Inc.

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.
