1) The organization is facing significant budget shortfalls for the upcoming fiscal year due to declines in government funding and private foundation grants of around 35% each. 2) Census levels at their main residential program are down 50% due to new child welfare policies, straining their ability to cover costs. 3) In response, the organization has already implemented initial staffing and program reductions and is proposing additional cuts, including closing more offices and putting more staff on reduced schedules, to align their budget with reduced revenues.
