  2. Correctional residential programs - residential re-entry programs for offenders that are funded by the federal bureau of prisons, united states probation office, and the missouri department of corrections. These programs provide supervision and accountability to referred offenders in a highly structured residential environment. Supportive services are arranged to help each offender successfully transition to the community. While assigned to heartland's residential re-entry programs, offenders are expected to follow the requirements of a supervision plan, become gainfully employed, locate supportive permanent housing, develop savings, and participate in approved programs in the community. During the prior fiscal year, heartland acquired alternatives, inc. Which expands the organization's ability to provide services such as substance awareness traffic offender program (satop), weekend intervention program (wip), and serious and repeat offender program (sarop).

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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.

From the IRS filings of HEARTLAND CENTER FOR BEHAVIORAL CHANGE’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

48% 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 HEARTLAND CENTER FOR BEHAVIORAL CHANGE.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $188 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
