The advocacy program provides assistance to deaf and hard of hearing clients by assessing needs and then advocating for them and teaching them to advocate also for themselves. In this manner they are leading themselves to increased self-sufficiency. We use assistive devices and other services to accomplish this goal. Hearing and screening: the organization provides free hearing tests to over 2,200 children and adults each year. Most children are screened at pre-schools and day care sites. Adults are screened at health fairs and other venues.

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 2020 to 2021, from $1.0M to $607k (−40%).
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 4% · 2018 2% · 2020 11% · 2021 8% · 2022 2% · 2023 2% · 2024 1% · 2025 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
