$382,107 spent74% of program spendingIn 2020 ILJNY was one of three sites selected within the ILJ Network to participate in the national Leading with Welcome program funded by the United Methodist Committee on Relief and coordinated by Church World Service. Since then ILJNY provided legal advise counsel and full representation for asylum seekers newly relocated to New York and New Jersey.

In total ILJNY reached hundreds of individuals through these presentations who might otherwise lack access to trustworthy legal guidance. By combining education with targeted legal assistance the program reduced the risk of deportation due to missed deadlines…

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $661k to $488k (−26%).
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 37% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $213k 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.
