The three components combine into a single 0–100 score weighted as shown. Full methodology →
Peer comparison
Compared to 1,226 other orgs in NY with NTEE prefix A6.
Most-divergent component: financial score sits 52 points below the peer median (0 vs. 52).
5-year trend: Structural Deficit

What's driving this score
- Comp-to-revenue ratio of 2.4% sits within the sector's healthy band (18–22%).
- Financial resilience score in the bottom quartile — reserves and liabilities ratios warrant review.
What would change this score
The two changes that would most improve this score:
- Build cash reserves to at least 3 months of operating expenses — moves financial resilience score meaningfully (~10 points).
Improving governance is a board decision. These are the levers.
