Programs

  1. Community based and educational services:family resource centers - families struggling through crises or challenging situations know they can find experienced practitioners who are responsive, accessible, and compassionate. Hillsides offers numerous community-based programs and services through several Hillsides family resource centers in los angeles county. These centers provide parenting classes, mental health support, psychological testing, psychiatric assessments and medication management, crisis intervention and additional crucial resources for children and families in need. (see shedule o for continuation)they also provide in-home individual and family therapy to families at risk who are unable to access the services in our resource centers. Hillsides' staff intervenes before children are removed from their homes in order to preserve families, help them begin to recover, and create secure, permanent living environments. In addition, the agency offers school-based mental health services in surrounding school districts because children's needs are often first detected in the school setting. Hillsides turns obstacles into opportunities to restore hope and honor the inherent…

  2. Campus-based services:Hillsides' campus-based services provide a comprehensive continuum of behavioral health programs for children, adolescents, and young adults on our 17-acre pasadena campus. The continuum includes 24/7 residential treatment (serving youth through our short-term residential therapeutic program and commercial insurance contracts), day treatment programs (partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient), and transitional housing for young adults in extended foster care (thpp-nmd). Together, these programs offer varying levels of structure and support to meet each individual's clinical and developmental needs while maintaining a focus on safety, healing, and growth. (see shedule o for continuation)each program emphasizes a holistic, trauma-informed approach designed to help youth and young adults stabilize, build skills, and achieve greater independence. Our campus includes residential cottages, classrooms, a recreation and arts center, nursing offices, and outdoor spaces that encourage connection and wellness. By partnering closely with families, counties, and community providers, Hillsides ensures that every participant, whether in residential care, day…

  3. Home-based services:home-based family care (formerly known as foster care) is an opportunity to provide children, who have experienced trauma, abuse, and/or neglect, a place to call home. Bienvenidos, an affiliate of Hillsides, provides services to children and youth ranging from newborn to 21 years old from all backgrounds. Family is the foundation of a child's emotional wellbeing. When children are given a place to call home made up of people they consider family, they are able to heal and begin to thrive. (see schedule o for continuation) beyond home-based family care, adoption is an opportunity for children to have a "forever family" when they are unable to be reunited with their birth parent(s). 93 children and youth served; impacting 352 family members.

  4. Youth moving on - youth moving on provides transition-aged youth ages 16 to 25, a continuum of support services and affordable quality housing to help them transition successfully to adulthood. Many youths, who are preparing for life after foster care, need assistance and training in key life skills to live on their own, to reduce the risk of homelessness, and to overcome other obstacles. Hillsides' innovative transitional living and housing programs as well as its peer resource center give young adults the mental health counseling, job training, and financial training to reach fulfilling careers and a life of independence.544 clients served.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 26 funders to 33 funders, grant income fell $1.3M → $943k.

12 of 86 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 9% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $2.2M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Youth Moving On). These are real filings, and they are not money HILLSIDES raised.

From the IRS filings of HILLSIDES’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 86 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

HILLSIDES has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 10% of grant income, and it takes 6 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left

28% 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 HILLSIDES.

“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

44% of HILLSIDES's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 67% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $874k arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
