What Qigong Sensory Training Institute does
Mission
The mission of qsti is to create and perpetuate effective models of care for children with autism and their families. The models we seek are evidence-based, accessible, and self-sustaining.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
During 2024, qsti continued to develop its professional training program, transitioning to a more effective lms and re-engaging previously certified supervisors. More certified therapists graduated in 2024 than in recent years. The master trainer program was re-opened with newly revised standards for admittance and completion. A board finance committee was launched, and new foundation relationships were established.

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 2017 to 2018, from $36k to $563k (+1475%).
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.
66% of QIGONG SENSORY TRAINING INSTITUTE’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (82% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $23k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
