Programs
Woodland hills provides a therapeutic, structured, non-secure residential juvenile justice program for youth ages 12-18. Youth with an extended juvenile jurisdiction may remain in treatment through age 20. A combination of positive peer interactions, trust, safety, and clear expectations allow youth to work through behavioral and mental health issues. In 2020, the woodland hills residential program provided continuous care throughout the pandemic. Our woodland hills sub-programs include: the long term residentail program addresses behavioral, emotional, chemical, and mental health needs and empowers youth to invest in the process of change.
Our comprehensive cambia hills mental health programs are individualized to treat youth ages 6 to 17 who are experiencing patterns of behavior that may interrupt their daily functioning at home, school, or in the community. Clinical staff are trained in traume focused cognitive behavioral therapy and offer a range of individual, group, and family skills and therapy. Our cambia hills programs include: the residential treatment program is for youth ages 12-17 in need of intensive treatment and 24-hour case. In 2020, the residentail treatment program provided continuous care throught the pandemic.

The 4 programs described on its FY2022 Form 990, listed largest first by expense. Program spending in total: $71,682.
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 $33M to $0 (−100%).
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 2% · 2018 3% · 2019 2% · 2020 16%. 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 6 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
2017 → 2021: the base narrowed from 6 funders to 4 funders, grant income fell $120k → $91k.
3 of 15 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 40% 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 HILLS YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 14 of 15 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 HILLS YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES leans on a few funders — its largest provides 34% of grant income and the top three 70%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
84% 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 HILLS YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 31% · 2018 42% · 2019 74% · 2020 33% · 2021 44% — 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.

33% of THE HILLS YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 53% 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 FY2021, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $360k 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.
