In developing new self narratives, the people we serve are able to more effectively disrupt violence inside and outside prison, and become leaders who change negative societal narratives about those incarcerated for violent crime. Our groundbreaking approach is changing policy and outcomes, driven by the voices and experiences of system-impacted communities. 10 9 33 15 0 2016543 3986555 0 0 128747 86066 2145290 4072621 0 0 2075413 2292366 0 92990 482396 685902 2557809 2978268 -412519 1094353 2981564 4369006 157474 450563 2824090 3918443 UNCOMMON LAW'S MISSION IS TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO JUSTICE AND HEALING FOR PEOPLE IMPACTED BY INCARCERATION.

Additionally, we provided 41 written consultations which help non-clients reflect on their past hearing and better prepare for their next hearing. The first cohort of the Home After Harm Program at California State Prison- Los Angeles County (Lancaster) completed the program.In partnership with other organizations, we launched the California Alliance for Parole Reform to advocate for fair and accessible pathways home from prison through parole reform. 2718392 true true false true false false false false false false true false false true true false true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 12 0 true 33 true false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false X 10 9 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true true false CA X X THE ORGANIZATION 5102710310 220 4TH ST STE 103 OAKLAND CA 94607 KEITH WATTLEY Executive Dir. 60.00 0.00 X 161592 0 0 Sara Norman Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Erin Scott Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Carletha Sterling Board President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kwame Marfo Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Ernest Hammond III Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Satch Slavin Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Eddy Zheng Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rob Eber Fundraising Chr 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Paul Petrequin Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 161592 1 false true false The Urban Institute 500 LEnfant Plaza Southwest Washington DC 20024 Measurement Evaluation 109438 1 1916756 2069799 3986555 0 0 0 0 0 0 108567 32801 75766 0 0 Other revenue 900099 10300 10300 10300 4072621 10300 0 0 0 0 161592 152373 3844 5375 0 1753820 1653759 41721 58340 0 226407 213216 5665 7526 150547 141909 3633 5005 0 792 664 128 31921 31921 0 0 0 168872 99442 68663 767 0 5809 5335 221 253 27274 26111 444 719 0 124756 117411 3205 4140 65067 64714 271 82 0 0 3834 720 24 3090 0 1708 1619 33 56 17538 14211 2825 502 Measurement and Evaluation 109438 109438 Staff training and development 38809 36470 1175 1164 Dues and memberships 21332 17580 1291 2461 Furniture and equipment 15137 13624 1034 479 53615 49796 788 3031 2978268 2718392 166886 92990 1638416 2295739 0 1285503 1801430 0 0 0 0 0 35651 29912 10248 1708 8540 0 0 0 0 21994 233385 2981564 4369006 114564 165501 6910 6035 36000 21600 257427 157474 450563 X 1557924 1796680 1266166 2121763 2824090 3918443 2981564 4369006 1094353 X false true X true false X 447803 1269382 3582997 2016543 3986555 11303280 95536 24870 120406 0 0 0 543339 1294252 3582997 2016543 3986555 11423686 0 0 11423686 0 0 0 2897 1583 11303 10300 26083 543339 1297149 3584580 2027846 3996855 11449769 0.99770 0.99800 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false 2999 2999 2975269 2978268 298913 74728 false 298913 298913 448370 2999 2999 74728 74728 112092 10248 1708 8540 8540 Right of use - Premises 214289 Security deposits 19096 233385 Lease liability - current portion 109532 Lease liability - long-term portion 114030 Refundable Advance 33865 257427 4535767 463146 463146 4072621 4072621 3441414 463146 463146 2978268 2978268 X X X X X false Annual fundraiser Heroes 108567 108567 32801 108567 108567 32801 32801 75766 X X X false false false false false false false false false KEITH WATTLEY Executive Dir. 161592 161592 Satch S BoardMember Cash flow X 72000 21600 false true true 21600 Schedule L, Part V Supplemental Information Julie Hess (Employee) Satch Slavin (Board member)Purpose: General operatingTotal Note Payable: $72,000 issued in 2019Balance as of Dec 31, 2022: $21,600 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b AN OUTSIDE ACCOUNTING FIRM PREPARES THE TAX RETURNS.
