Mission

Programs
Unaccompanied Child Program - As part of our Unaccompanied Childrens Program, ACKC provides legal services including limited scope and full representational services to immigrant children designated as unaccompanied minors and who live near Kansas City. Unaccompanied children are children who have entered the U.S. without a parent or guardian to care for them. These children are uniquely vulnerable and have special protections under the law. ACKC typically represents the children in seeking lawful status and defending themselves against deportation, as well as advocating for them on a variety of other needs. This includes representation in immigration court, legal filings with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, and other wrap-around services unique to each child. Many of the children qualify for a visa that places them on a pathway to a green card, called Special Immigrant Juvenile Status. Many are also asylum seekers fleeing persecution in their home countries. Unaccompanied minors are often targets for labor or sex traffickers if they remain present without status, and the work ACKC does to stabilize their status and get them a work card truly changes lives…

$351,276 spent$2,000 earned by the program40% of program spendingSAFE Program In November 2025, Asylum Clinic KC (ACKC) launched the Safety and Fairness for Everyone (SAFE) Program, a legal services initiative jointly funded by the City of Kansas City, Missouri and the Health Forward Foundation to address critical gaps in immigration legal services for vulnerable immigrants, including noncitizen minors, survivors of crimes, and survivors of human trafficking. The program seeks to expand access to justice, preserve due process, strengthen community trust, and advance Kansas Citys commitment to equity and inclusion. In its initial implementation period, ACKC participated in eight community outreach events to increase public understanding of the immigration system and provided legal services to 34 clients who met SAFE Program eligibility criteria.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $576k to $1.5M (+152%).
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: 2022 90% · 2023 79% · 2024 90% · 2025 51%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
2 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 34% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
KC Asylum Clinic Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 66% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 KC Asylum Clinic Inc.
“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
KC Asylum Clinic Inc draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Missouri, across 1 state in all.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $40k 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. 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.
