What The Florence Crittenton Agency Inc does
Mission
The mission of the florence crittenton agency ("fca") is to strengthen communities through effective prevention and treatment services to children and families. Fca provides support services that address educational needs, behavioral and mental health issues, substance abuse education and treatment, as well as alternative living arrangements.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
The fca's largest program service is the youth summit of recovery, which is a 24 bed, secure residential treatment program. This program is designed to meet the needs of adolescents (male and female) between the ages of 13 - 17 who have an alcohol and/or drug abuse diagnosis, a history of failed substance abuse treatment, and are in need of a secure short-term residential treatment program. Services include on-site academic education, daily substance abuse education/treatment, relapse prevention planning, and individual and family therapy. About 85% of the adolescents in the program are stepped-down to home or a foster home.

This 32 bed non-secure residential program supports the treatment of adolescent females, ages 13 - 18, who have moderate to severe emotional and behavioral problems. On-site academic education, day treatment, individual and family counseling, and substance abuse education are provided to these adolescents. About 85% of these adolescents achieve permanency through stepdowns to family or relatives. A fully-accredited school provides residents with expanded educational opportunities that support their efforts for community placement and public education.

This on-site school provides education for all youth in residential treatment programs. Npa is a fully accredited category 1 (non-public), title 1 school that provides daily classroom instruction to a special population of at-risk middle and high school students in state custody. These adolescents need highly focused instruction to help them stay in school, recover credits, establish a clear educational path, graduate from high school, obtain a hiset/ged, gain essential employment skills, assist in the community, and receive assistance on college and job applications.

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 2022 to 2023, from $8.1M to $7.6M (−6%).
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 4% · 2018 3% · 2019 4% · 2020 4% · 2021 26% · 2022 28% · 2023 6% · 2024 1% · 2025 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 8 funders to 7 funders, grant income rose $160k → $177k.
2 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 6% 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 THE FLORENCE CRITTENTON AGENCY INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 11 of 12 funders by total. 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
THE FLORENCE CRITTENTON AGENCY INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 71% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 THE FLORENCE CRITTENTON AGENCY INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 61% · 2018 71% · 2019 48% · 2020 68% · 2021 73% · 2022 89% · 2023 70% — 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
50% of THE FLORENCE CRITTENTON AGENCY INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 75% 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
99% of THE FLORENCE CRITTENTON AGENCY INC's grant income comes from Tennessee funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $65k 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.
