Students and professors alike are very happy to be able to learn and teach face to face once again. Over the course of 2021, 47 students graduated * Metro Reentry Facility: 6 graduates, 14 currently enrolled * Burruss Correctional Training Center: 7 graduates, 5 currently enrolled * Whitworth Women's Facility: 11 graduates, 17 currently enrolled * Philips State Prison: 14 currently enrolled (Philips is a 2 year degree program, more on graduates to come!) * Downtown Class (formerly incarcerated students): ** "Shakespeare and the Common Good", 13 graduates over 2 cycles ** "Odyssey: Finding Home", 10 graduates over 2 cyclesStaffing accomplishments Awards: Common Good Atlanta received a huge statement of support when American Family Insurance and Atlanta United FC not only donated $30,000 but also produced a compelling video about CGAs work and impact An anonymous donor offered a challenge gift, committing to match every contribution we received through the end of August. Our Back in the Classroom Fundraiser was a huge success, and we reached our goal of turning $25,000 into $50,000. Thanks to generous donations, we have given Chromebooks to 6 of our Alumni. We have 6 additional Chromebooks remaining to provide our January 2022 Clemente students. This provided formerly incarcerated people with the materials needed to overcome the digital divide and connect with our programming. CGA was awarded the GSU College to Career Grant, which provided 5 directly impacted students scholarship money to continue their education. Georgia Humanities donated $3,000 for programming support to assist with continuing education in the humanities through the Clemente Course.Events: Hosted various alumni events throughout the year Publications: In partnership with Emory Digital Scholarship, CGA published our very own digital journal, Hourglass Journal. Compiled of pieces from our Alumni, this journal is a testament to the powerful, generous, brilliant, whole, and deeply kind people who have served time in prison. 103569 true 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 false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 15 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 13 0 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true false false false false false GA X LYNDA ROBERTS 4043140360 PO BOX 17007 ATLANTA GA 30317 X PAUL PENDERGRASS President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN SPARROW Vice President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 LYNDA ROBERTS Secretary/Treas 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MARY CAMPBELL JENKINS Trustee 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 TARIZ BAIYINA Alumni Ldrshp 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JANINE SOLURSH BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JAMIL ZAINALDIN BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SONIA TOSON BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ALIYA BHATIA BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KIPTON JENSEN BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 THOMAS RUMPH JR BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PRESTON TOWNSEND BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SARAH HIGINBOTHAM BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 208211 208211 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 208211 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 26240 26240 0 0 9003 9003 0 0 700 700 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 567 567 0 0 0 0 0 3086 3086 CONTRACT LABOR 44400 20400 6000 18000 SITE DIRECTOR 11870 11870 STIPENDS 10500 10500 SYSTEM SUPPORT 8261 191 3070 5000 31720 24798 2404 4518 146347 103569 15260 27518 84446 147310 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 84446 147310 1000 2000 1000 2000 X 83446 145310 83446 145310 84446 147310 61864 X false false false X 93713 93058 208211 394982 0 0 93713 93058 208211 394982 0 394982 0 0 0 394982 X 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process A COPY OF FORM 990 WILL BE E-MAILED TO ALL BOARD MEMBERS FOR THEIR REVIEW.
