What Nurses for Sexual and Reproductive Health does
Mission
To provide students, nurses and midwives with education and resources to become skilled care providers and social change agents in sexual and reproductive health and justice.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Education and training program: our education program is comprised of our online institute, our training in abortion care (tac) residency program, and our webinar series. Through the online institute, we offer curated, accessible, and affordable learning modules. These modules are designed to help users increase their knowledge and proficiency in srh and acquire needed ceus. Our curriculum is also designed to help our users better understand how sexual and reproductive health intersects with critical concepts and issues in reproductive justice and reproductive rights.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 2023 to 2024, from $276k to $951k (+245%).
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.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $25k → $190k.
3 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 12% 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 NURSES FOR SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH’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
NURSES FOR SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH leans on a few funders — its largest provides 33% of grant income and the top three 79%; 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 NURSES FOR SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 67% · 2021 67% · 2022 48% · 2023 47% — diversifying over time.
“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
NURSES FOR SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Minnesota, across 3 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $85k 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.
