In 2021, this was not the reality so we took the nonexistent $25,744 out of our net assets since it is money we do not have. Part V, Line 34: Yes, there was a significant change made to the organizing or governing documents. There was a new Executive Director appointed to Chapters Aheas Inc, however, the organization's name did not change. Executive Director recently changed their last name from Strickland to Doolin.
