01What it does

What IncludEd does

Mission

All children deserve access to community, care, and education. Unfortunately, far too many families raising young children with disabilities in San Diego County are not finding that access. Includ(Ed) was established to address the county-wide, pervasive need for quality, fully inclusive preschool and childcare for families raising children with disabilities. We build inclusive, early intervention-focused early learning classrooms and communities where babies, toddlers, and children with disabilities can thrive alongside their typically-developing peers.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. In February 2024, we opened our first program in our new physical location in Pacific Beach: The Includ(Ed) Center for Families. We provide space for co-working, self-care, and connection for our caregivers (including free art therapy and support groups monthly as well as free family meetups monthly). And most importantly, we provide an enriching, research-backed and early intervention-focused preschool classroom for learning, discovery, connection, and growth. We are currently serving 6 preschool-aged children every Monday-Thursday, approximately 5 children for Music Therapy on Wednesdays, and 8-12 babies and young toddlers for Developmental Playgroups every Friday. Additionally, we provide in-home therapies to almost 30 families across San Diego County at no cost to families (vendored by the San Diego Regional Center). We support our students with a group of highly trained and skilled pediatric therapists and educators who are relationship and play-based as well as neurodiversity-affirming. Through our team, which includes a Special Educator, a Music Therapist, an Occupational Therapist, a Physical Therapist, and a Speech Therapist, our students receive hours of weekly…

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.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.

3 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 35% 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 IncludEd’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.

How concentrated its funding is

IncludEd leans on a few funders — its largest provides 44% of grant income and the top three 86%; half comes from just 2 funders.

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

97% 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 IncludEd.

“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.

Where its funders are

95% of IncludEd's grant income comes from California funders.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $96k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
