What Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States Inc does
Mission
Siecus advances sex education through advocacy, policy and coalition building.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Public policy: siecus partners with several national organizations to lead the movement toward federal funding for sexuality education programs (including teen pregnancy prevention and hiv prevention education); works with partners on the ground in targeted states to move state-level policies forward to institute, protect, and/or expand sexuality education programs; partners with both national and state-level organizations to prevent the harm of federally funded abstinence-only-until-marriage programs; and delivers advocacy trainings and produces resources (such as fact sheets, special reports, and policy updates) that advance these efforts.
$897,278 spent100% of program spending
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $897,278.
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.
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 $822k to $4.8M (+480%).
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: 2024 12%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

Who funds it, year by year

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
30% 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 SEXUALITY INFORMATION AND EDUCATION COUNCIL OF THE UNITED STATES INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 49% · 2018 49% · 2019 49% · 2020 41% · 2021 30% · 2022 52% · 2023 72% — growing more concentrated.
“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

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

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $664k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
