What Old Pueblo Community Services does
Mission
Established in 1996, Old Pueblo Community Services has delivered housing and support services for people facing homelessness in Pima County. The organization serves various populations, including families, veterans, youth, individuals with mental illness and substance use disorders, and those reentering the community post-incarceration. Services are underpinned by a "Housing First" approach, which provides stable housing as a foundation for addressing additional needs such as mental health, addiction, medical care, income, and education.OPCS currently manages a range of housing models, including bridge, shelter, transitional, and permanent housing. Additional services include substance abuse counseling and life skills programming for both veteran and non-veteran clients.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Reentry Program: Each year, approximately 13,000 prisoners are released in Arizona, with about 2,000 returning to Pima County. This program assists formerly incarcerated individuals with housing, counseling, substance abuse treatment, and employment support, aiming to reduce recidivism. In the last fiscal year, 116 individuals were served. The program is primarily funded by government sources, with the OPCS Home Fund covering costs for those not eligible for such support.

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 2023 to 2024, from $8.7M to $11M (+25%).
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 85% · 2018 91% · 2019 93% · 2020 94% · 2021 91% · 2022 88% · 2023 90% · 2024 90%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 6 funders to 10 funders, grant income rose $209k → $458k.
9 of 29 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 15% 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 Old Pueblo Community Services’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
Old Pueblo Community Services has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 19% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
37% 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 Old Pueblo Community Services.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 53% · 2018 72% · 2019 60% · 2020 31% · 2021 16% · 2022 81% · 2023 55% — broadly stable.
“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
43% of Old Pueblo Community Services's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 66% 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
63% of Old Pueblo Community Services's grant income comes from Arizona funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $409k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
