FEDERAL AND STATE-EARNED INCOME TAX CREDITS, WHICH INCENTIVIZE AND REWARD WORK, ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT POVERTY REDUCTION PROGRAMS IN EXISTENCE. THE EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT AND CHILD TAX CREDIT HAVE REDUCED POVERTY BY AN ESTIMATED 3.2 PERCENTAGE POINTS AND HAVE DECREASED POVERTY RATES FOR CHILDREN BY A FULL 6 PERCENTAGE POINTS FROM 31.1 PERCENT TO 25.1 PERCENT. DESPITE THE EFFORTS OF THESE PROGRAMS, A LARGE NUMBER OF CALIFORNIANS REMAIN IN POVERTY, MANY UNAWARE OF THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO THEM. PROMOTING GREATER PARTICIPATION IN EXISTING PROGRAMS AND ENCOURAGING NEW, INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO FIGHTING CAUSES OF POVERTY WOULD LEAD TO DRASTIC IMPROVEMENTS IN THE STANDARD OF LIVING FOR MANY LOW-INCOME FAMILIES STRUGGLING TO GET BY. 7185805 true true false true false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 28 0 true 33 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 10 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false CA X Lindsey Martin 4155054405 345 California Street STE 600 San Francisco CA 94104 Amy Everitt President 50.00 0.00 X X 268667 0 26950 Esperanza Greenwood DIR COM/ASST SE 50.00 0.00 X X 166750 0 35515 Robin Engle Head of Development 50.00 0.00 178315 0 14282 Carmen Chang Director of Programs & Organizing 50.00 0.00 158333 0 21980 Jen Dodd Deputy Director of Programs 50.00 0.00 150000 0 24734 Lindsay Cooper Martin COO/ASST TREAS 50.00 0.00 X X 144282 0 14970 Aryeh Breakstone Dept Dir of Dev 50.00 0.00 136500 0 9183 Sabrina De Santiago Sr. Dir of Policy 50.00 0.00 108211 0 84 Joe Sanberg Founder/Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Ana Grande Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Cynthia Guerrero Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Angelo Farooq Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ben Jealous Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael P Meehan Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Darrell Peeden Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 1311058 147698 8 false true false Fraser Communications 1631 Pontius Avenue Los Angeles CA 90025 Online Comm & Research 676330 Crossroads Consulting Inc 10 Burton Hills Blvd 4th FL Nashville TN 37215 Consulting & Prof Dev 110126 2 5597400 2012364 7609764 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Other Revenue 900099 12948 12948 12948 7622712 12948 1402680 1402680 0 0 0 1204779 921498 97794 185487 0 1442735 1103504 117108 222123 0 233007 178220 18913 35874 189454 144908 15378 29168 0 32499 32499 160963 160963 250571 250571 0 0 371414 336451 6872 28091 2498022 2483595 4198 10229 238076 172687 25779 39610 47760 34643 5171 7946 0 75280 57579 6111 11590 66571 51781 8050 6740 0 1681 1308 203 170 41514 38479 1421 1614 0 0 10330 7901 839 1590 0 8267336 7185805 501299 580232 432169 485075 0 0 2740145 1312457 0 0 0 0 1075884 321990 0 0 0 0 0 4839 5413 4253037 2124935 219955 136477 1000000 400000 1619955 136477 X 244843 1288458 2388239 700000 2633082 1988458 4253037 2124935 -644624 X false true X true false X 5038159 3710485 5527215 8877006 7609764 30762629 0 0 5038159 3710485 5527215 8877006 7609764 30762629 0 30762629 0 0 750 12 12300 12948 26010 30788639 0.99920 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false true true false true false false true 250571 false false 250571 false false Part II-B, Line 1i - Other Activities Description STAFF, LOBBYISTS, AND VOLUNTEERS TO ADVANCED ANTI-POVERTY LEGISLATION AND REFORM; SPECIFICALLY THE FEDERAL AND CALIFORNIA TAX CREDITS TAX CREDITS FOR LOW INCOME WORKERS AND FAMILIES.
