What Tri-County Casa Inc does
Mission
Tri-county casa, inc. Volunteers advocate for children in the 13th judicial district in butler, greenwood, and elk counties in kansas.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
A court appointed special advocate (casa) is appointed by a judge to speak for the best interest of children brought into the judicial system as victims of abuse or neglect. Volunteers are trained in the areas of courtroom procedures, effective advocacy techniques, drug and alcohol issues, and ways to spot abuse. Casas spend time with children and their families and are in contact with srs personnel, school staff, medical and mental health agencies, foster families, or others who might have information relating to their cases. Before a child is scheduled to appear in court, the casa writes a report to the judge and makes recommendations about what the casa feels would be in the best interest of the child.
$130,126 spent100% of program spendingThe organization received a donation of the use of facilities for operational use of office space during the year. The donated space, located at 2375 w. Central avenue, el dorado kansas was provided by the board of commissioners of butler county, kansas. The estimated fair market value of the donated use of facilities was 8,400. This donation significantly supported the organizations mission by enabling the use of four to five office spaces and a conference room for daily office procedures.

The 2 programs described on its FY2023 Form 990, listed largest first by expense. Program spending in total: $130,126.
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 2018 to 2019, from $145k to $199k (+38%).
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: 2019 44% · 2020 58% · 2021 54% · 2022 58% · 2023 65% · 2024 58%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
80% of TRI-COUNTY CASA INC’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (99% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income fell $40k → $34k.
1 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 0% 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 TRI-COUNTY CASA INC’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
TRI-COUNTY CASA INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 53% of grant income and the top three 100%; 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 TRI-COUNTY CASA INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 63% · 2018 59% · 2019 61% · 2020 63% · 2021 50% · 2022 57% · 2023 43% — 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.
Where its funders are
98% of TRI-COUNTY CASA INC's grant income comes from Kansas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $82 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
