AAADSW collects program income from clients when appropriate. All clients with access to services that are funded using Federal dollars are given the opportunity to make a voluntary donation. Additionally, donations received from individuals or organizations given for the purpose of supporting client trainings or other client events are also treated as program income. The result of the receipt of this program income is that we require fewer Federal funds to accomplish program goals. Program income received and applied to programs in 2023 was $307,607: $1,061 related to ALN #93.043; $28,904 related to ALN # 93.044 and $277,643 related to ALN #93.045.
