Programs
PEACE (Partners in Education, Arts, & Community Empowerment) is a US Department of Education funded project which empowers educators and cultural partners in Suffolk county middle and high schools to make more effective use of the arts for under-represented students through College, Career, and Civic Readiness (CCCR) and Culturally Responsive-Sustaining education (CR-S). It brings teachers & cultural partners together for arts-based professional development in an annual summer institute, a monthly online community of practice, and monthly cultural gatherings called "PEACE Outs" to tackle issues of teaching and learning through the arts and raising up the voices and needs of underrepresented learners.

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 2021 to 2022, from $42k to $157k (+278%).
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 78% · 2023 86% · 2024 85% · 2025 84%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
