The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 $10.0M to $20M (+97%).
How it's funded, over time

Government-grant reliance: 2019 13% · 2020 6% · 2021 82% · 2022 31% · 2023 24% · 2024 48%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Where its funders are

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $17M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
