B
★★★★
Rated on 2 of 4 criteria — the rest aren't reported in this filing type.

How the rating works →—Program efficiency40% of the ratingNo expense breakdown in filings

Not scored for S A F E Place— this filing type doesn't report it, and the rating simply skips it (never counts it against the organization). See the exact thresholds →
AFinancial health25% of the rating9 mo reserves · +1% margin
