Programs
Case management includes: family empowerment services (fes) and truancy intervention prevention services (tips). For fes, families are either referrred directly from the philadelphia department of human services or may request services directly from gpca. All families have an identified barrier that prevents the family from reaching their full potential. Case managers visit the families in their homes and after conducting a full assessment, link families with referrals to address the identified barrier. Tips connects with students who have reached the absence threshold that has caused them to be referred to regional truancy court. Case managers work with young people [cont on sch o]and their families to eliminate the barrier that was preventing the student from attending school so that they will not be referred to the philadelphia family court. Additionally, staff work with identified youth who have not reached the absence threshold so that they will not be referred to the regional truancy court.

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 $3.4M 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 87% · 2018 85% · 2019 71% · 2020 94% · 2021 98% · 2022 79%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2022: the base held at 2 funders, grant income fell $246k → $10k.
2 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $532k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Greater Philadelphia Community Alliance). These are real filings, and they are not money UNITED COMMUNITIES SOUTHEAST PHILADELPHIA raised.
From the IRS filings of UNITED COMMUNITIES SOUTHEAST PHILADELPHIA’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 6 of 7 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
UNITED COMMUNITIES SOUTHEAST PHILADELPHIA leans on a few funders — its largest provides 91% of grant income and the top three 96%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
97% 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 UNITED COMMUNITIES SOUTHEAST PHILADELPHIA.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 97% · 2018 93% · 2019 93% · 2020 63% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% — 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.
Where its funders are

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $17k 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.
