The data collected in HMIS allows a community to assess the needs and dynamics among specific subpopulations of people experiencing homelessness, and to measure the performance of the community's approaches to preventing and ending homelessness and its allocation of resources. Coordinated Entry is a system that provides access to individuals and families seeking assistance through a coordinated referral and housing placement process that identifies and prioritizes a client's vulnerability and barriers to housing. Continuum of Care (CoC) planning is a process involving government agencies, service providers, advocates, and other stakeholders in evaluating the needs of homeless people in the community, assessing the performance of existing activities, and prioritizing activities for the purpose of securing funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

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.
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 $12M to $15M (+23%).
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 70% · 2018 61% · 2019 64% · 2020 54% · 2021 52% · 2022 62% · 2023 65% · 2024 60% · 2025 45%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
87% of Metro Community DevelopmentInc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (61% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 8 funders to 6 funders, grant income fell $636k → $546k.
3 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 3% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $853k from 4 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Community Foundation of Greater Flint); $224k from one payer (the same organization on both sides, largest Metro Community DevelopmentInc). These are real filings, and they are not money Metro Community DevelopmentInc raised.
From the IRS filings of Metro Community DevelopmentInc’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
Metro Community DevelopmentInc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 47% of grant income and the top three 88%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
58% 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 Metro Community DevelopmentInc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 36% · 2018 38% · 2019 39% · 2020 61% · 2021 72% · 2022 50% · 2023 46% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
How long its funders stay
22% of Metro Community DevelopmentInc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 44% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
Metro Community DevelopmentInc draws 56% of its grant income from funders outside Michigan, across 6 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $160k 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.

Metro Community DevelopmentInc runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 2,127 community improvement nonprofits its size.
