01What it does

What Human Resources Agency of New Britain Inc does

Mission

The mission of hra is to improve the quality of life by helping people achieve economic and social potential; responding to the causes and conditions of poverty; and building stronger individuals, families and the communities we serve.

Programs

  1. Early childhood: hra offers quality affordable early childhood services accredited by the national association education young children (naeyc) including head start, school readiness, state head start and doe childcare.

  2. Energy assistance is a program for people who have difficulty paying the cost of heating their home. Hra is the official provider of the energy assistance program funded by the connecticut energy assistance program (ceap) to serve over 4000 households in new britain, bristol, and four other communities. Ceap helps low income households pay their primary heat source bills. Through an intake and assessment it is determined how hra and its programs can best help lower energy costs. In addition, customers can access services including case management, resources, referrals, training and other social services which strengthen individuals/families' ability to maintain independence and promote self-sufficiency.

  3. Community and neighborhood: hra community services case managers directly benefit residents of the communities we serve by building the safety net of support systems necessary for residents accessible within their community. Hra community services case managers assist clients in accessing services for a variety of needs including job search/retention, housing searches, negotiations with landlords, assistance with deposits and rental agreements, and with follow up to ensure that clients remain permanently housed. Often low-income, homeless, disabled and/or elderly residents need assistance to obtain or maintain stability in their housing (such as energy assistance, budgeting, job search or tax assistance), to get access to nutritious food, or to get access to health care.

The 3 programs described on its FY2024 Form 990, listed largest first by expense. Program spending in total: $20,640,656.

02The organization over time

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 6 funders to 11 funders, grant income fell $1.4M → $1.2M.

3 of 19 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 1% 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 HUMAN RESOURCES AGENCY OF NEW BRITAIN INC’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.

HUMAN RESOURCES AGENCY OF NEW BRITAIN INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 34% of grant income and the top three 70%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

90% 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 HUMAN RESOURCES AGENCY OF NEW BRITAIN INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $60k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
