DescIn 2020-2021, Y-WE served 378+ young women and gender expansive youth, and 1,924+ community members, through 178 program days and community events held online and in-person. 40+ adult volunteer mentors supported youth enrolled in 18 distinct programs, and 55 other active volunteers supported Y-WE in a variety of ways throughout the year. These programs and events kept us connected; working in solidarity toward racial, gender and social justice; and fueling each other's creativity and resilience. We also continued to adapt programs, provide basic needs support, and facilitate mutual aid in response to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. 27 families received social work services , 20 laptops were loaned out to youth to support online learning, and over $40,000 of emergency funds were redistributed to families impacted by the intersecting pandemics of Covid-19, racism, sexism, classism, and xenophobia. We also increased paid internship opportunities for youth and gave over 20 scholarships to alums and seniors through the Dream Fund, totaling $45,000. We also offered racial justice healing spaces for our community in response to collective challenges. We continued to center young women and gender expansive youth from marginalized and underrepresented communities, particularly young women of color. Of 2020-2021 youth participants, 83% were of color, approximately 70% were low income, and a high percentage came from first- or second- generation immigrant families. Programs offered included: Youth Leadership Council, Y-WE Tech, Y-WE Grow at Marra Farm, and Y-WE Lead (encompassing specialty programs like Career Camp, Nature Art and Journaling, and DIY Healing). Participants reported increased self confidence, leadership skills, connection to the natural world, and commitment to taking action for change in their communities. In over half of Y-WE's enrolled programs, 100% of participants reported an increase of their sense of belonging in a diverse community. Of Y-WE Grow participants, over 95% gave the highest possible positive response to every single metric assessed. Of all metrics assessed across all programs, the positive response rate averaged to over 90%.Desc

DescY-WE's educational events included Health Day, Career Day, Day of Wellness, and STEM Day, as well as a variety of smaller events such as the Water Justice Panel and the Black Voices in Climate Justice Panel. Collectively these programs were attended or viewed online by 1000+ youth and community members. These events featured: two panels of diverse and inspiring women professionals; STEM education and skill development; and a holistic approach to gaining knowledge, skills and resource access that support young women's mental, emotional, social and physical well-being. Y-WE also offered educational workshops for schools and community groups which are seeking to improve their equity and social justice frameworks through creative community-building. 100% of STEM Exploration Day participants reported an increased awareness of local jobs and careers and increased confidence in their ability to learn about STEM.Desc

DescMulti-day camps focused on creativity and engagement with the natural world provided transformative and healing experiences to 65+ youth and 20+ adult volunteer mentors. Camp offerings included Y-WE Create, Y-WE Write, Water Justice Leadership Camp, and internships at Marra Farm. Young women worked directly with renowned writers and artists, community leaders, and professionals across diverse career fields. Through these experiences, participants developed their voices and creative visions, gained professional skills, and developed stronger relationships with land, all the while being a part of diverse communities that honored their identities, experiences, and perspectives. 100% of Marra Farm interns reported an increased sense of connection to the land, interest in environmental justice issues, and feeling of confidence in who they are in the world. 92% of participants in the Water Justice Leadership camp reported an increased sense of nature as a place of healing, awareness of water-related career paths, and an increase in leadership skills. 97% of Y-WE Write participants reported that they felt safe and felt a sense of belonging. 93% of Y-WE Create participants reported that they learned to trust in themselves and in what they believe, and gained ideas for building a healthier, better world.Desc

ExplanationThis note has been prepared by the organization's contract accountants. Young Women Empowered filed for an electronic extension via form990online.org for this return however it was declined as form 8868 was received after the original due date of the return. The guidance found online suggested mailing a copy of the return into the IRS with a letter outlining the reasonable cause for abatement. This was mailed with an accompanying letter on March 29th, 2022. The return and the letter were returned to Young Women Empowered in October of 2022 with an instruction to e-file. We are submitting this return again through the form990online.org system which they have unlocked in order to facilitate that. Several factors contributed to the delay between the original extension due date which was January 15th and the first submission via paper copy on March 29th. We believe these are in accordance with reasonable cause which is an allowable criteria for abatement and are outlined as follows; Young Women Empowered conducted their first independent financial review the year of this return following the close of their fiscal year which led to extended closing periods from prior years. The person who conducts the filings was out on medical leave at the time the extension was to be filed and as a result, the January 15th deadline for extension was missed and she discovered this error upon her return to office. Increased volume of government filings during this time period due to factors arising from the coronavirus pandemic led to increased workload and shifts in organizational due date logistics for accountants and nonprofits. We are hopeful the IRS will grant abatement as the organization has not been delinquent in this filing before from our knowledge. The steps that have been implemented to safeguard this type of error in the future are as follows; Implementation of a collaborative tax calendar and schedule in partnership with the organization's external auditors and accountants as well as peer review of compliance tasks in accordance with the IRS's guidelines.ExplanationTxt
