We guide youth toward a hopeful future false false 9200 URBAN COMPASS PROVIDES SERVICES IN TWO LOS ANGELES COMMUNITIES - WATTS AND PICO UNION. WHILE THESE COMMUNITIES ARE DIFFERENT IN MANY WAYS, BOTH COMMUNITIES ARE PLAGUED BY GANG ACTIVITY, BOTH EXPERIENCE WIDESPREAD ACADEMIC CHALLENGES, AND BOTH ARE EXTREMELY UNDERSERVED BY SOCIAL SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS. THESE AREAS ARE STARVED FOR SOCIAL SERVICES, PARTICULARLY IN THE AREA OF ACADEMIC SUPPORT. THE OFFICE OF JUVENILE JUSTICE AND DELINQUENCY PREVENTION REPORTS THAT CHILDREN ARE MOST LIKELY TO ENGAGE IN RISKY BEHAVIORS, SUCH AS VIOLENT CRIME, DURING THE AFTER-SCHOOL HOURS OF 3-7 PM. THE NEEDS OF THESE COMMUNITIES ARE WIDELY ACKNOWLEDGED, YET THE RESOURCES TO ADDRESS THESE NEEDS REMAIN SCARCE. THROUGH EARLY INTERVENTION, URBAN COMPASS WORKS TO KEEP ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS OUT OF GANGS BY PROVIDING ACADEMIC SUPPORT AND ENRICHMENT IN A SAFE AND SUPERVISED SPACE DURING VULNERABLE AFTER SCHOOL HOURS - PUTTING OUR STUDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES ON A PATH TO COLLEGE AND A POSITIVE FUTURE. BY ENGAGING CHILDREN DURING THE AFTER SCHOOL HOURS, URBAN COMPASS PROVIDES A POSITIVE DIVERSION DURING THE HOURS WHEN CHILDREN ARE MOST LIKELY TO ENGAGE IN RISKY ACTIVITIES. THIS TIME IS USED TO POSITIVELY IMPACT ACADEMIC PROGRESS, WHICH MOVES CHILDREN FURTHER AWAY FROM A LIFE OF GANG ACTIVITY AND TOWARD A POSITIVE TRAJECTORY OF HOPE. URBAN COMPASS PROVIDES INTENSIVE, LONG-TERM SUPPORT FOR CHILDREN THAT SUBSTANTIALLY INFLUENCES THEIR SCHOOL EXPERIENCE AND THEIR LIFE TRAJECTORY. THE URBAN COMPASS MODEL BEGINS WITH K-5TH GRADERS FROM 112TH STREET SCHOOL & ST THOMAS, WHO RECEIVE DAILY AFTER SCHOOL TUTORING AND ENRICHMENT SERVICES. UPON REACHING MIDDLE SCHOOL, URBAN COMPASS STUDENTS ARE INVITED TO ATTEND TWICE-MONTHLY SATURDAY SESSIONS WITH URBAN COMPASS COLLEGE & CAREER PATHWAYS AND ULTIMATELY, THEY ARE INVITED TO RETURN AS HIGH SCHOOL TUTORS AND MENTORS. THE COMPREHENSIVE SERVICE MODEL INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF SERVICES: ACADEMIC SUPPORT, FAMILY ENGAGEMENT AND SUPPORT, ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES, SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND SPECIAL EVENTS/FIELD TRIPS. 9200 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false 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 true 2 0 true 0 false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 9 9 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true false false CA X X MICHELLE ALFONSO 3233837588 11100 S CENTRAL AVE LOS ANGELES CA 90059 X MICHELLE ALFONSO Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 CLAUDIA DIETRICH-JOE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PATRICK MCNICHOLAS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DON MORGAN President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 TODD BECKER Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 IYARE ONI Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SHERRY-MARIA SAFCHUK Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL SCHMID Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 CATHY TATE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KATHY WALTON Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 8392 8392 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 100 100 0 0 0 8493 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 -241 -241 51 51 0 750 750 2408 2408 0 0 0 0 810 790 20 0 290 290 0 0 502 502 0 0 0 0 0 3167 3167 AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM 7200 7200 PARENT ENGAGEMENT 2000 2000 TAXES AND LICENSE 229 229 SUPPLIES 95 95 129 119 10 17390 9200 8160 30 33212 51304 30614 3139 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28120 28120 0 0 0 0 0 10 63826 54453 1224 748 1224 748 X 62602 53705 62602 53705 63826 54453 -8897 X false false false X 203115 463914 245325 113944 8392 1034690 0 0 203115 463914 245325 113944 8392 1034690 287957 746733 0 0 107811 108471 70608 33207 100 320197 1354887 0.55110 0.57950 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 28120 28120 CREDIT CARD PAYABLE 748 748 Form 990, Part VI, Line 2: Description of Business or Family Relationship of Officers, Directors, Et TODD BECKER AND PATRICK MCNICHOLAS ARE BOTH ATTOREYS WHO ARE CURRENTLY WORKING TOGETHER ON LEGAL WORK OUTSIDE OF THE ORGANIZATION.
