In 2007, the DC Bar Foundation began awarding grants under the Access to Justice Grants Program (ATJ Grants) when the Council of the District of Columbia designated the DC Bar Foundation as administrator of these funds. ATJ Grants support organizations that provide legal assistance in three areas: (a) underserved areas in DC; (b) housing-related matters; and (c) to support a shared legal services interpreter bank. Since 2007, over $30 million has been awarded to provide critical legal assistance to DC's poor and underserved. 1410181 986000 Private and Bank Settlement Fund Grants. The DC Bar Foundation's Private Grants Program, which began in 1978 shortly after when the DC Bar Foundation was founded, has provided over $25 million in critical operating support to DC legal aid providers. These private grants provide unrestricted funds support to help cover overhead costs, such as rent and client record databases, which are not always covered by other grants these organizations receive. These grants are funded by private contributions and revenue received through the Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts (IOLTA) program, a program created by the District of Columbia Court of Appeals in 1985. 127356 113911 Loan Repayment Assistance Program. The DC Bar Foundation provides loan repayment assistance to qualified attorneys working for an eligible employer in DC in order to: (1) increase the number of experienced, skilled lawyers working on behalf of low-income DC residents; and (2) assist DC poverty lawyers who have incurred significant educational debt in obtaining their law degree. The DC Bar Foundation's Loan Repayment Assistance Program (LRAP) provides one-year, interest-free, forgivable loans, of up to $12,000 per year, to qualified attorneys so they can continue providing exceptional legal assistance to low-income DC residents despite high educational debt. 6370327 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 15 0 1 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 11 11 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 X X The Organization 2024673750 80 M STREET SE No 100 WASHINGTON DC 20003 Susan M Hoffman President 16.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Paul M Smith Vice-President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Lorelie S Masters Treasurer 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Ellen M Jakovic Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Paulette E Chapman Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Maureen F Del Duca Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Philip W Horton Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Vonya B McCann Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David W Ogden Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bruce V Spiva Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Janet R Studley Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kirra L Jarratt Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X 138206 0 13390 Imoni M Washington Director of Programs 40.00 0.00 X 114925 0 11109 253131 0 24499 2 0 1 0 Your Part-Time Controller 1500 Walnut Street Suite 1200 Philadelphia PA 19102 Accounting Services 143732 1 8625 4857835 1395334 6261794 1482 1482 8000 8625 8527 -527 -527 6262749 0 0 955 5538000 5538000 113911 113911 153395 92184 35843 25368 290956 175861 67091 48004 3093 1761 810 522 50871 28966 13311 8594 31517 17997 7272 6248 268665 169974 46016 52675 177258 112144 30360 34754 4875 1729 3146 24558 10219 8954 5385 35299 22332 6046 6921 69222 40891 14059 14272 3116 1561 257 1298 13414 6718 1108 5588 6765 3818 1595 1352 4490 2536 1067 887 GRANTEE EVALUATION, TRA 17508 16176 1332 Temporary Services 9378 5933 1606 1839 Miscellaneous 8228 3768 627 3833 Dues & Subscription 7723 2334 4498 891 2393 1514 410 469 6834635 6370327 242262 222046 1794321 1051491 2500 2000 54628 86460 51328 31909 46299 41048 12016 5251 1102720 1247411 5310 20310 3022823 2444832 68840 76346 130963 117352 199803 193698 X 1237550 1160464 1507772 1010465 77698 80205 2823020 2251134 3022823 2444832 -571886 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 4434328 5313459 7659184 10748 6261794 23679513 4434328 5313459 7659184 10748 6261794 23679513 1201900 22477613 447 236 449 157 1482 2771 23682284 2591684 0.94910 0.94740 X SCHEDULE A, PART II: DURING 2016, THE FOUNDATION CHANGED ITS FISCAL YEAR-END FROM JUNE 30 TO SEPTEMBER 30.
