What Safe Harbor Child Advocacy Center Inc does
Mission
Safe harbor seeks to reduce the trauma to children who are victims of abuse or neglect or witnesses to crimes by promoting the coordination of multi-disciplinary investigations, conducting forensic interviews in a child-friendly environment, and providing ongoing advocacy to affected children and families.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Safe harbor child advocacy center is a fully accredited member of the national children's alliance. Safe harbor provides a safe and friendly place for a child to talk about what has happened to them. A family advocate meets with caregivers while the child is being interviewed to address questions and concerns. Safe harbor also coordinates mental health services for children and families who have come to safe harbor. Safe harbor conducts about 350 interviews per year and has conducted over 6,000 interviews since opening in 1999.

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 2024 to 2025, from $2.3M to $2.9M (+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: 2017 64% · 2018 60% · 2019 50% · 2020 71% · 2021 71% · 2022 52% · 2023 65% · 2024 44% · 2025 35%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
85% 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 SAFE HARBOR CHILD ADVOCACY CENTER INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 87% · 2018 82% · 2019 67% · 2020 67% · 2021 79% · 2022 45% · 2023 56% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $300k 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.
