LUNA engaged more than 4300 people through door-knocking, community events, community meetings, and house meetings. In 2024, LUNA concluded the campaign with recommendations to the City of San Jose, including: Unlawful detainer training, enforce fines towards slum landlords, hire more personnel, especially in the Code Enforcement Department, and more police patrols in the neighborhoods. 138143 1500 7902 Chapters: We have channeled our hyper local power to the city and county levels. At every city council and board of supervisors meeting, crucial topics are discussed. LUNA and our leaders get involved when there is a policy that will cause a critical impact (either positively or negatively) on low-income immigrant tenants in Eastside San Jose. HCA, which owns Regional Medical Center, the only hospital on the Eastside of San Jose, announced the closure of Trauma, STEMI, and Stroke programs in August of 2024. With a coalition of local organizations, we had a victory beyond what we imagined and not only prevented cuts to services, but secured the county's investment and bought the hospital to incorporate the services into our county health system. 337274 Elevate Youth campaign: In partnership with Sunrise Middle School, LUNA organized the Wooster & 26th neighborhood residents. Community leaders supporting this campaign door-knocked on over 600 doors to establish relationships with the residents and build a base in the neighborhood that is willing to organize and take civic action against potential displacement, as the city of San Jose is planning to develop ""urban villages"" in this neighborhood. In 2024, LUNA supported restarting the neighborhood association of the community. The neighborhood association consists of homeowners, school parents, school teachers, and the City of San Jose District 3 staff. LUNA will partner with the neighborhood association so they can support the tenants who are at risk of displacement. Housing Support System: In 2024, the Housing Support System continued building the capacity of 25 community members who are part of the support system. Community members learned of the resources the City of San Jose Housing Department has to offer. Additionally, members of the support system participated in advocacy events such as presenting their concerns to the mayor and council members at budget town halls and council meetings. Lastly, the community members advocated for the Tenant Preference Policy that allows the City of San Jose to set aside a portion of units in affordable housing developments for residents who meet certain criteria and who most need affordable housing. This policy actively prevents displacement. We are proud of all of our community members who participated and grateful to Somos Mayfair for leading the efforts. Immigration: The Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network unites organizations to protect our immigrant community from deportation. The network conducted outreach to 800 immigrants in Santa Clara County to inform them of their rights and connected them with local resources. 337274 780305 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 20 0 true 8 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 10 10 true false false false true true true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false CA X Jose Romero 4084936486 1692 Story RD STE 221 San Jose CA 95122 Alfonso Mendez Treasurer 1.0 X X 0 0 0 Delma Hernandez Secretary 1.0 X X 0 0 0 Jorge Casas President 1.0 X X 0 0 0 Maria Granados Vice-President 1.0 X X 0 0 0 Baltazar Baron Board Member 1.0 X 0 0 0 Brenda Zendejas Board Member 1.0 X 0 0 0 Huascar Castro Board Member 1.0 X 0 0 0 Ingrid Granados Board Member 1.0 X 0 0 0 Michelle Cordova Board Member 1.0 X 0 0 0 Salvador Bustamente Board Member 1.0 X 0 0 0 Jose Romero Co-Director 40.0 X 76197 0 11320 Socorro Montano Co-Director 40.0 X 73458 0 12189 149655 0 23509 0 false false false 0 128500 352542 481042 Program Service Revenue 900099 7902 7902 0 0 0 0 7902 0 0 0 0 8985 10049 -1064 -1064 0 0 0 0 0 487880 7902 0 -1064 1500 1500 0 0 173164 164356 2194 6614 437928 416457 6422 15049 17087 16275 812 43991 41030 2961 41663 40145 1518 1200 1200 16012 16012 18691 13257 5434 0 364 364 21169 2554 18615 12903 12903 34192 33868 324 2089 2089 7224 7224 6392 6392 Program Expenses 67169 65969 1200 Training & Education 16971 -1200 18171 Chapter Expenses 6930 6930 Reimbursable Expenses 6863 2519 4344 0 0 0 0 933502 780305 125919 27278 1046716 749125 507274 313012 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1553990 1062137 12184 12866 0 127002 35389 0 0 139186 48255 X 1414804 1013882 1414804 1013882 1553990 1062137 X -445622 44700 X false false false X 552778 473766 1097281 1354690 481042 3959557 3314 7902 11216 33719 11332 8985 54036 0 0 552778 473766 1131000 1369336 497929 4024809 0 0 146400 486909 200000 833309 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 146400 486909 200000 833309 3191500 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 552778 473766 1131000 1369336 497929 4024809 0.79296 1.0 0 0.0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990, Part III, Line 4a-4c Description of program services (Expenses $ 337,274 including grants of $) Elevate Youth campaign: In partnership with Sunrise Middle School, LUNA organized the Wooster & 26th neighborhood residents.
