  2. The economist impact - the united states out of the shadows index. This index evaluates state-level efforts to prevent, respond to, and ultimately eradicate child sexual abuse and exploitation. This year's report reviews 28 states - covering 70 percent of the u.s. Population - and builds on the findings of our 2022 pilot study, which assessed 12 states. To create the index, 170 metrics were aggregated into 21 indicators and four domains; investments in prevention capacity building; state legal protections and criminal provisions, the adequacy of support services; and the delivery of survivor-centered justice processes, against which each state was evaluated. It is our hope that the u.s. Out of the shadows index will serve as a roadmap for change - informing policy reform, galvanizing action, and driving accountability at every level.

  3. The bridge for youth - using a mobile outreach center, this organization meets homeless and at-risk youth in the twin cities and connects them with a continuum of services. This disrupts the cycle of sexual exploitation and empowers them to increase their safety, housing, stability and self-sufficiency. The mobile outreach meets the youth's immediate basis needs - healthy food, clothing, and resources for harm reduction. It also offers assessments and referrals, case management and most importantly, connection through 1:1 in person and virtual meetings. This program supports the more than 6,000 youth experiencing homelessness, with many also experiencing sexual exploitation, in minnesota each night.

02The organization over time

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.

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $295k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.
