In March 2024, Wellspring implemented a significant system change that unified all affiliate organizations into a single digital platform. This integration marks a major step forward in streamlining our operations and enhancing our ability to serve our community. As part of this transition, significant data cleanup took place in 2024. As a result, for the purposes of reporting the 2023-2024 fiscal year, some numbers have been approximated based on available information. Going forward, this new system will allow us to report on our numbers in a consistent way, and enable us to accurately report on the unique individuals we serve across the network.
