    Impact Statement
    $718,881 total costs / 8,870,387 additional benefits claimed = roughly $0.08 increases the government benefits claimed by a disabled veteran by one dollar. [2021 USD]
    Program Context
    Next Ridgeline Transition Program: This program provides assistance to help disabled veterans claim the government benefits they are owed.
    Data Time Period
    1/1/22 to 12/31/22
    Benchmark for Scoring
    Impact scores of veterans disability benefits programs are based on the return of benefits secured per dollar spent. Programs receive an Impact score of 100 if every dollar spent results in $1.50 in benefits secured to a veteran, and a score of 80 if a dollar spent results in $0.85 to a veteran. If a nonprofit reports impact but doesn't meet the benchmark for cost-effectiveness, it earns a score of 65. One dollar spent by this program results in more than $1.50 in benefits secured for a veteran.
    Methodology
    This impact score was determined through the Veterans Disability Benefits Assistance methodology which is fully detailed in the Charity Navigator Guide to Ratings. Analysis conducted in 2023 by Charity Navigator using data submitted by the nonprofit, theory and evidence from scientific research studies, and public datasets.
    Data Source
    The nonprofit submitted data on how many claims it filed successfully or how many veterans it served, as well as the dollar value of claims filed successfully.
