Sexual Abuse Trauma Recovery

Since our founding in 2007, Dawn’s Place has been at the forefront of providing direct services for women recovering from the trauma of sexual exploitation. Our year-long residential program combines intensive therapy with a proven program providing adult survivors of sex trafficking and/or Commercial Sexual Exploitation (CSE) with the opportunity to learn how to become self-supporting and live independently.

We offer:
• a residential, therapeutic program that is securely monitored with staff on site 24-7.
• a personalized recovery plan that includes on-site therapy and access to off-site programs.
• a chance to learn life and social skills.
• access to a staff case manager as well as pro bono legal aid.
• transitional housing and aftercare services with support to gain permanent housing.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
