What The Latino Coalition for Community Leadership does
Mission
The LCCL seeks to advance resource equity and the well-being of community through its mission to find, fund, form, and feature nonprofits in marginalized communities meeting the needs of individuals and families. As a community-facing intermediary, the LCCL provides subgrants and capacity-building to community and faith-based organizations focused on reentry, victim services, violence interruption, and community health and safety.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
49 Reentry-focused organizations in California and Colorado are provided with sub grants and capacity-building through the Work and Gain Education & Employment Skills (WAGEES) and Fair Chance Hiring projects funded through State or Federal funding. WAGEES project Community Partners coordinate pre- and post-release reentry services and provide education, training, and employment related services along with short and long-term housing, supportive services, behavioral health services, and case management. The LCCL provides training, capacity-building, and technical assistance, and fosters ecosystem development through regular in-person site visits, trainings, and quarterly all-stakeholder meetings.

The projects work to reduce repeat victimization and expand community-based support services to crime victims. Services are focused on those who are historically underserved by crime victim services, namely people of color, men, and young adults. This model helps smaller CFBOs, generally in marginalized communities of color and rural communities, that are unable to access traditional grant funding despite being competent at serving their communities and are more able to build relationships with traditionally hard to reach target populations. The LCCL provides training, capacity-building, and technical assistance, and fosters ecosystem development through regular in-person site visits, trainings, and quarterly all-stakeholder meetings.

These projects employ community intervention workers, violence interrupters and street outreach workers skilled in gang intervention, de-escalation efforts, and rumor control. Direct services are focused on supporting youth and young adults on their individual journeys and providing wrap-around services to families and siblings through case management, pro-social engagement, supportive services, and community and restorative justice events. These organizations collaborate with pubic safety and public health entities to strengthen community response to violence. The LCCL provides training, capacity-building, and technical assistance, and fosters ecosystem development through regular in-person site visits, trainings, and quarterly all-stakeholder meetings.

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 2022 to 2023, from $2.7M to $15M (+457%).
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 41% · 2018 94% · 2019 94% · 2020 94% · 2021 85% · 2022 86% · 2023 59% · 2024 85% · 2025 86%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 8 funders, grant income rose $150k → $12M.
4 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 54% 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 Latino Coalition for Community Leadership’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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 Latino Coalition for Community Leadership leans on a few funders — its largest provides 53% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
90% 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 Latino Coalition for Community Leadership.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 48% · 2021 79% · 2022 89% · 2023 84% — diversifying over time.
“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
17% of The Latino Coalition for Community Leadership's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 47% 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
54% of The Latino Coalition for Community Leadership's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $8.7M that is directly attributable, 93% of it comes from funders outside California, across 6 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10M 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.
