What Illinois Caucus for Adolescent Health Inc does
Mission
Icah is a network of empowered youth and allied adults who transform public consciousness and increase the capacity of family, school and healthcare systems to support the sexual health, rights and identities of youth.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
At icah, we educate, advocate, organize, and shift culture through arts-based programming, sex ed, adult ally cultivation, and developing youth leaders and organizers. For over three decades of our 45 year history, we've trained young people to organize around the reproductive justice (rj) issues impacting their lives and communities. Our powerful youth-led organizing, advocacy, and education - including groundbreaking performances, messaging, research, and actions - have sparked important cultural shifts and policy changes that have sent ripples across the midwest and beyond. Our work bridges youth organizing and arts-based strategies. Driven by the conviction that cultural problems demand cultural solutions, all of icah's programs integrate a rigorous cultural strategy. We use art to uproot shame and stigma by infusing otherwise difficult conversations with pleasure and joy. Through our strategic plan, icah's current focus is uplifting disability justice, economic justice, and healing justice and how they intersect with rj.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $602k to $327k (−46%).
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: 2017 91% · 2018 73% · 2020 6% · 2021 9% · 2022 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
60% 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 ILLINOIS CAUCUS FOR ADOLESCENT HEALTH INC.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $624k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
