Measures against peers

Percentiles place this center among the 349 centers reporting in 2023 (national) and among centers of similar size (size peers: quartile 3 of 4 by total income). 100 is the most favourable position. How each measure is built and what it cannot tell you.

Relative measures, report year 2023
Measure	Value	National percentile	Size-peer percentile	What it is
Income per consumer	$2,239	63th	66th	Total income divided by consumers served. Lower ranks higher. It is intensity, not efficiency: a center doing nursing-home transitions costs more per person than one doing mostly information.
Income per goal achieved	$4,318	60th	55th	Total income divided by goals achieved. Lower ranks higher. Goals are self-reported and are not weighted by difficulty.
Goal achievement rate	81.4%	87th	85th	Goals achieved as a share of goals set. A rate near 100% can mean goals are recorded only when already met.
Records closed with all goals met	66.0%	50th	42th	Share of closed consumer records closed as "completed all goals set". Recorded at exit, so a stronger signal than goal counts.
Transitions per 100 consumers	6.30	85th	89th	Relocation-from-institution goals achieved per 100 consumers. Zero is common at small centers; the percentile shows how common.
Transitions per $100,000 of Part C	18.24	90th	87th	The same count against direct federal funding.
Service fill rate	89.7%	25th	20th	Consumers receiving a service as a share of consumers requesting it, across all service types except information and referral.
Board members with significant disabilities	67.0%	37th	40th	The regulation requires more than 50%. 14 of 21 members.
Staff with disabilities	62.0%	23th	23th	Share of staff full-time equivalents filled by people with disabilities. 33.0 of 52.9 FTE.
Equity index	44.8	13th	10th	Index of dissimilarity between the race and ethnicity of consumers and of the state's disability population, 0 to 100. Lower ranks higher. Compared with the state, not the center's actual service area.
Income volatility	70.1%	4th	3th	Coefficient of variation of total income across the years reported. Lower ranks higher.
Data-quality flags	2	0th	1th	Failed arithmetic checks in this year's report. Fewer ranks higher. Listed below.

Title VII funds (Parts B and C and Chapter 2) were 15.4% of income.

Race and ethnicity against the state's disability population

Consumers compared with Illinois residents with a disabilityCenter shares exclude 12 consumers of unknown race. State shares are from ACS B18101A to B18101I. A ratio above 1 means the group is a larger share of consumers than of the state's disability population.
Group	Consumers	Share of consumers	Share of state disability population	Ratio
White	185	23.2%	61.7%	0.38
Black or African American	435	54.5%	16.5%	3.31
American Indian or Alaska Native	2	0.3%	0.5%	0.55
Asian	16	2.0%	3.4%	0.59
Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander	0	0.0%	0.0%	0.00
Two or more races	14	1.8%	6.4%	0.27
Hispanic or Latino (any race)	146	18.3%	11.6%	1.58

Hispanic or Latino is an ethnicity reported alongside race in the PPR, so shares can sum to more than 100%. The comparison is with the whole state, which overstates any mismatch for a center that serves one part of it.

Data quality

Eight arithmetic checks run over every center's report. They test whether the tables agree with each other, nothing more. How often each check fails nationally.

More received a service than requested it. For at least one service type, the count receiving exceeds the count requesting.
Goals achieved exceed goals set. For at least one goal category, more goals were achieved than were set.

What this cannot tell you

The report is unaudited self-report. Nobody verifies the consumer counts.
It reports income, not expenditure. A cost measure here is a stand-in until checked against the center's audited financial statements.
Part B and Part C outcomes are not separable. The center reports total activity.
There is no county, city or island detail in the public file.
Percentiles compare centers whose definitions of "consumer" and "goal" may differ. The data-quality row is the only signal of that in the public data.
Relative position is not impact. Nothing here supports a causal claim about what the center changed in anyone's life.
