The Challenge

Divine Truth Unity Fellowship — the parent nonprofit of Rainbow Pride Youth Alliance — delivers crisis support, youth services, HIV planning, and CalHOPE-funded mental health outreach across the Inland Empire. In 2022, the organization operated programs funded by more than $2.2M in state and public grants, including CalHOPE and other health service contracts.

DTUF's multi-program structure required consistent, accurate reporting into the statewide CORD system to retain eligibility for CalHOPE and related contracts. Data lived across multiple staff workflows and Salesforce was configured unevenly across departments. With staff turnover and expanding caseloads, the risk was not operational — it was financial: loss of compliance could jeopardize current and future grant eligibility.

Our Approach

Breakthrough Blue was engaged to stabilize and professionalize the data and reporting layer across programs. Our role went beyond consulting — we became the technical and compliance backstop:

  • Direct CORD reporting administration — We prepared, validated, and submitted official reports on behalf of the organization to the state
  • Salesforce continuity & configuration support — Direct administrator-level access ensured data integrity, segmentation, and reporting alignment across departments
  • Compliance coaching for internal staff — We trained program teams to maintain reporting quality and avoid disqualification triggers
  • Continuity buffer for state grant requirements — We served as the technical backstop so eligibility never depended on any single staffer

This wasn't a one-time audit. It was ongoing stewardship of the data infrastructure that public funding depends on.

Results

Through this engagement, DTUF maintained operational and financial continuity without interruption:

  • Maintained active compliance for state grant programs representing more than $2.2M in public funding in 2022
  • Avoided reporting lapses that could trigger funding hold or clawback
  • Standardized workflow across staff without slowing service delivery
  • Preserved institutional memory during periods of turnover and ramp-up
  • Entered subsequent grant cycles with clean eligibility on record

Why it matters: For community-based organizations, funding risk rarely comes from mission failure — it comes from compliance failure. By stabilizing the data layer, Breakthrough Blue ensured that DTUF could keep delivering crisis support, youth services, and CalHOPE programming without financial interruption.
