OUR VISION IS A LOS ANGELES WHERE EVERY CHILD IN THE CHILD WELFARE SYSTEM HAS AN ADVOCATE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO THRIVE. false false 4379739 86447 CASA of Los Angeles seeks to reduce and reverse the effects of child abuse and neglect, with ultimate goals of safety, permanency, and well-being for children in the foster care system. This year, 1,158 volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) served 1,308 children. CASAs served 1,291 of those children through one-on-one advocacy by learning about their individual living situations, identifying needs, and providing recommendations to the court in the best interest of the child. CASA volunteers help children find safe, permanent homes, encourage family visitation, and support children's medical, mental health, and educational needs. CASAs served 17 unique children through our newer Essential History Program, in which volunteers complete a detailed review of a child's file and write a report outlining the child's developmental, medical, and mental health history to ensure critical details are not overlooked by the various stakeholders in the child's case. This program aims to help social workers, attorneys and judges make trauma-informed decisions about the young people they serve by providing them with a summary of the young person's experiences and history in critical areas of life. 4379739 true true false false false false false false false true true false false false false true true false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false true 29 0 true 63 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false X 26 25 false false true false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X X CHARITY CHANDLER-COLE 3238592888 201 CENTRE PLAZA DRIVE SUITE 1100 MONTEREY PARK CA 91754 ROBERT BERMAN UNTIL 131 CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER 40.0 0.0 X 133507 0 5700 CHARITY CHANDLER-COLE CEO 40.0 0.0 X 126838 0 4369 Maegan Mattock Until 1021 Chief Program Officer 40.0 0.0 X 113986 0 4490 Lynne M Gabriel Director of Volunteer Relation 40.0 0.0 X 100437 0 16634 Marie Carpenter Director of Development 40.0 0.0 X 110400 0 6651 CELINA ANN SANTIAGO CHIEF DEVELOPMENT OFFICER 40.0 0.0 X 93454 0 0 Ambika Khan DIRECTOR 40.0 0.0 X 76635 0 6090 Kristienne Brooks HIghest Compensated EMployee 40.0 0.0 X 66736 0 7156 Glenn F Lezon Chief Financial Officer 40.0 0.0 X 6250 0 0 HARRIET ZARETSKY Until 630 CHAIR 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 LYNN MCKENZIE Until 630 AT LARGE 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DEBRA RAVDEN AT LARGE 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ALICIA ANDERSON DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DOUG ANDERSON DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 MINJI CHO DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 TERRI DURHAM Until 630 DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DAWN GOODMAN Until 913 DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ASHLEY GRACE Until 621 DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 AUDREY HANDELMAN SECRETARY 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 JENNIFER HINMAN Until 630 TREASURER 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 ERIKA JOHNSON DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 NICK LEBHERZ UNTIL 630 DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 JASON LEVIN DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 JOHNA RIVERS DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DAYNA RODRIGUEZ DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ALAYNE SAMPSON DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DANIEL SARKIS DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 NEIL SELMAN DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 CAROLYN TOTO DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 CHRISTIAN GREEN DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 LORI KOZAK VICE CHAIR 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 COLIN MCINTOSH DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Doug Bond DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Maggie Egan DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Ricardo Gonzalez DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Andrew Goldberg DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Tamara Hunter DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Veronica Keegan DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Mark Lamia DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Edward Nahmias DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Courtney Torres DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 828243 0 51090 5 false false false 0 1020435 849601 4460109 56478 6330145 0 31580 31580 0 0 0 0 0 10485 10752 -267 -267 -267 82285 1020435 335837 -253552 -253552 0 0 0 3144 949 2195 2195 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 900099 18177 18177 18177 6128278 -201867 0 86447 86447 0 0 411414 330769 28134 52511 0 3738277 3005503 255638 477136 0 313859 252337 21463 40059 324197 260648 22170 41379 0 0 28385 28385 0 0 0 26242 15900 10342 179012 50618 7264 121130 84345 14458 459 69428 244560 191820 15524 37216 0 18602 16136 2466 4600 2791 269 1540 0 0 0 0 81472 63902 5172 12398 41791 32778 2654 6359 IN-KIND GOODS 25875 25875 TRAINING EXPENSE 25221 18613 3584 3024 BACKGROUND CHECKS 12410 12410 0 0 PAYROLL PROCESSING FEES 11944 1041 3580 7323 20688 13593 2264 4831 5679341 4379739 414926 884676 X 1799176 2468293 1000000 1000500 254509 68500 154739 178686 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 38859 64959 1060313 564235 543125 496078 1067645 983643 0 0 0 0 0 0 14 0 4858067 5260659 496211 480311 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 496211 480311 X 2486977 3081340 1874879 1699008 4361856 4780348 4858067 5260659 448937 -30445 X false true X true false X 4429548 5116454 6012746 6132065 6330146 28020959 0 145752 182370 179103 170976 170976 849177 4575300 5298824 6191849 6303041 6501122 28870136 1419953 27450183 0 8308 8804 12731 31580 61423 145641 0 0 0 0 145641 445 1742 148055 176163 100462 426867 29504067 8209 0.93039 0.91656 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED true 20000 20000 20000 20000 20000 20000 0.00000 1.00000 0.00000 false false 0 515977 187108 328869 0 355944 241996 113948 188392 135131 53261 496078 0 0 X 10354661 -30446 4003277 253552 4226383 6128278 6128278 9936170 4003277 253552 4256829 5679341 5679341 PART III, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION HOLDS AN ART EVENT EACH YEAR WHERE PIECES OF ART ARE RECEIVED AND OFFERED FOR SALE TO FURTHER BENEFIT THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION.
