    Rating Information

    Not currently rated


    Ratings are calculated from one or more beacon scores. Currently, we require either an Accountability & Finance beacon or an Impact & Measurement beacon to be eligible for a Charity Navigator rating. Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.
    See rating report below to learn why this organization is not currently eligible.

    Historical Ratings
    Charity Navigator's ratings previously did not consider Leadership & Adaptability, Culture & Community, or Impact & Measurement. The historic rating mainly reflects a version of today’s Accountability and Finance score. More information on our previous rating methodologies can be found on our rating methodology page.
    Rating histories are available for a growing number of rated organizations. Check back later to see if this organization has a rating history!

    Adaptability Statement
    30 out of 30 points
    The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
    We did a careful analysis and took a great leap into a larger facility in a better location that will position us for growth. Our first three months in the new facility have shown us that we are sustainable with our existing member base and mode of operation, but to reach our full potential we will need additional funding. That funding can come organically through growth of our membership base, but we are seeking grant funding to accelerate our growth and evolution as an organization.
