THE COALITION HAS CREATED A PUBLIC AWARENESS AND INFORMATION CAMPAIGN TO TEACH PATERSON FAMILIES AND PARENTS THE BENEFITS OF HIGH-QUALITY EARLY EDUCATION AND TOOLS TO BOOST INFANT BRAIN DEVELOPMENT. THE OUTREACH INCLUDES A WEBSITE (IN FOUR LANGUAGES), SOCIAL MEDIA GROUPS, EARLY CHILDHOOD NAVIGATORS AND PARENT CAFES. NAVIGATORS ARE LOCAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO SHARE INFORMATION IN THE LANGUAGES OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS AND TRUST AS THEY SHARE TOOLS ON HOW CHILDREN CAN THRIVE WITH A STRONG START. PARENT CAFES BRING PARENTS TOGETHER WITH SERVICE-PROVIDERS TO DISCUSS NEEDS AND RESOURCES THAT LEAD TO SOLUTIONS. WE CONTINUE TO BUILD NEW COLLABORATIONS, AND BECOME MORE EFFICIENT IN SHARING INFORMATION AND RESOURCES TO A BROADER AUDIENCE. WE ARE GATHERING DATA ON OUR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, WITH HELP FROM THE 2020 CENSUS, THE HENRY & MARILYN TAUB FOUNDATION AND ADVOCATES FOR CHILDREN OF NEW JERSEY. THIS DATA WILL LEAD TO AN UPDATED PATERSON KIDS COUNT WHICH WILL BE PUBLISHED IN 2022. 39335 PATERSON ALLIANCE APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM THE PATERSON ALLIANCE HOSTS AN APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM EACH SUMMER FOR NINE PATERSON HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS AND SENIORS. THE GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO PROVIDE SUMMER EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES TO PATERSON YOUTH, WHILE ALSO EXPOSING THEM TO VALUABLE CAREER OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO THEM IN THE PUBLIC AND NONPROFIT SECTOR. THE STUDENTS NOT ONLY GAIN KNOWLEDGE ABOUT EDUCATION AND CAREER OPTIONS BUT ALSO ABOUT LIFE PREPAREDNESS SKILLS AND FINANCIAL LITERACY.EACH STUDENT APPRENTICES WITH A NONPROFIT MEMBER OF THE PATERSON ALLIANCE AND EXPERIENCES A REAL WORKPLACE ENVIRONMENT. THEY ARE PAID FOR THEIR WORK, AND LEARN TO BUDGET THEIR INCOME, AND THE JOY OF PAYING TAXES. IN ADDITION, STUDENTS WILL HAVE AN HONORED WORK EXPERIENCE TO INCLUDE ON FUTURE JOB APPLICATIONS AND COLLEGE RESUMES. WE HAVE FOUND THAT STUDENTS OFTEN DEVELOP RELATIONSHIPS WITH MENTORS, AS WELL AS CONTACTS THAT PROVIDE REFERENCES FOR FUTURE JOBS AND COLLEGE APPLICATIONS.THE STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN A PAID SEVEN-WEEK PROGRAM, WHICH INCLUDES ONE WEEK OF COMPREHENSIVE ORIENTATION THAT FOCUSES ON WORKPLACE BEHAVIOR, JOB READINESS SKILLS, FINANCIAL LITERACY AND COLLEGE PREPAREDNESS. WE INVITE COMMUNITY MEMBERS FROM VARIOUS CAREER PATHS TO GIVE STUDENTS IDEAS OF THE MANY OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE AVAILABLE IN THE WORKFORCE. AT THE END OF THE PROGRAM, STUDENTS CREATE A PRESENTATION, DETAILING THEIR EXPERIENCES. THEY PRESENT IT AT THE PATERSON ALLIANCE'S AUGUST MEMBERSHIP MEETING. THIS MEETING IS INSPIRATIONAL, AND IS EVIDENCE OF OUR PATERSON STUDENTS' TALENT. 15466 PATERSON FULL SERVICE COMMUNITY SCHOOL NONPROFIT INITIATIVEFULL SERVICE COMMUNITY SCHOOLS HAVE A NATIONAL TRACK RECORD IN IMPROVING EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES AND NURTURING COMMUNITIES. BY PARTNERING WITH THE PATERSON EDUCATION FUND, AND BRINGING TOGETHER THE FIVE NONPROFITS WHO SERVE AS SCHOOL-BASED "LEAD AGENCIES", WE HAVE GROWN TO ELEVEN FSCSS. WE ARE FINDING WAYS TO COLLECTIVELY AND POSITIVELY IMPACT THE SCHOOLS BY PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES TO SHARE SERVICES, BEST PRACTICES AND PROVEN SOLUTIONS. WE ARE CREATING PROCESSES THAT WILL STRENGTHEN THE FSCS FOOTPRINT IN PATERSON AND PROVIDE A FUNDING STREAM TO ALLOW FOR GROWTH. OUR SUCCESSFUL 2020 COLLABORATION WITH PATERSON EDUCATION FUND, NEW DESTINY FAMILY SUCCESS CENTER, ST. PAUL'S COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT CONTINUES TO BRING MUCH-NEEDED FUNDING TO TWO PATERSON SCHOOLS THROUGH A 21ST CENTURY GRANT OF MORE THAN $2.2 MILLION OVER THREE YEARS.PATERSON COUNTS CENSUS 2020THE 2020 CENSUS GAVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO ACHIEVE A COMPLETE COUNT OF PATERSON'S POPULATION. PATERSON HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN UNDERCOUNTED, WITH 84% OF ITS RESIDENTS LIVING IN "HARD-TO-COUNT" NEIGHBORHOODS. THE PATERSON ALLIANCE WAS A CO-CHAIR FOR PATERSON'S COMPLETE COUNT COMMITTEE. WE CREATED A CAMPAIGN AND WORKED WITH PARTNERS AT LOCAL, COUNTY AND STATE GOVERNMENTS TO ENSURE A COMPLETE COUNT. PLANS WERE UPENDED FREQUENTLY BY COVID, AND WE RESPONDED. OUR 2020 CENSUS CAMPAIGN HELPED THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU REACH EVERY KNOWN HOUSEHOLD IN PATERSON. WE EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS! THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU COUNTED 159,732 RESIDENTS IN PATERSON, A 10% INCREASE OVER THE 2010 CENSUS. WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING BENEFITS RESULTING FROM AN INCREASE IN REPRESENTATION AND MORE FEDERAL FUNDING COMING TO PATERSON. 15466 195100 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 6 0 1 11 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 13 13 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 NJ X X INGE SPUNGEN 9735193655 100 HAMILTON PLAZA 1221 PATERSON NJ 07505 REV CAROLYN MCCOMBS PRESIDENT 1.50 X 0 0 0 CINDY CZESAK VICE PRESIDENT 1.50 X 0 0 0 JOSHUA CHANANIE TREASURER 1.50 X 0 0 0 DR BERNADETTE TIERNAN SECRETARY 1.50 X 0 0 0 ROBERT GUARASCI DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 GINA M JOHNSON DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 YVONNE ZUIDEMA DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 IRENE STERLING DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 RICHARD C WILLIAMS DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 ASSAD AKHTER DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 MARISOL RODRIGUEZ DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 DAVID ASIAMAH DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 WILLIAM BRYANT DIRECTOR 1.50 X 0 0 0 INGE SPUNGEN EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 68913 0 4945 68913 0 4945 0 0 0 0 0 19575 21167 226060 266802 636 636 OTHER INCOME 900099 5000 5000 5000 272438 0 0 5636 36000 36000 73858 56871 4431 12556 48996 32494 6765 9737 572 195 214 163 9163 6649 847 1667 14895 11469 894 2532 25551 19163 1533 4855 750 750 1465 1128 88 249 PROGRAM EXPENSES 30381 30381 PROFESSIONAL FEES 4300 4300 245931 195100 19072 31759 224373 278972 40454 9787 1000 1500 1500 266327 291259 14201 12851 16650 16425 30851 29276 X 205476 161983 30000 100000 235476 261983 266327 291259 26507 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 241054 351652 298791 254891 266802 1413190 241054 351652 298791 254891 266802 1413190 744489 668701 216 636 852 3083 3083 1309 5000 6309 1423434 0.46980 0.40540 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 X 276438 4000 4000 272438 0 272438 249931 4000 4000 245931 0 245931 PART X, LINE 2: THE PATERSON ALLIANCE IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND FROM STATE INCOME TAXES UNDER SIMILAR STATE PROVISIONS.
