What Harm Reduction Institute does
Mission
Hri's mission is to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, such as hiv and hepatitis c, and to prevent overdose deaths in our community. We do this through the provision of lifesaving overdose prevention response and infectious disease prevention supplies and services.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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 2024 to 2025, from $221k to $113k (−49%).
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: 2023 4% · 2024 0% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of HARM REDUCTION INSTITUTE’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (82% for the typical peer).
