These are distributed through social media, electronic newsletters (Kennedy News & Views), and on our website.Once these exposures are identified we utilize health informatics data tofurther assess exposures to these chemicals and adverse health outcomes. If our finding support a causal relationship between the exposure and adverse health outcomes we identify potential sources of these exposures, those responsible for the exposures and work with them to reduce and eliminate. 309455 ResearchChildrens Health Defense has thousands of members throughoutthe US who share with us personal stories about the decline in their childrens health and what they think might have been the responsible. We then engage our team of scientists, researchers, and advocates to dig deeper by combing through full-text archives of biomedical and life sciences research at the US National Institutes of Healths National Library of Medicine to determine if the parents concerns are supported by research. 63665 4325477 true true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 82 0 true 14 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false X 17 10 false false false false false false false true true false true true true true true true true true true true false CA GA HI NY X Heidi Kidd 2019063475 9-11 6th St Fair Lawn NJ 07410 Robert F Kennedy Jr Chairman Chief Legal Counsel 40.00 0.00 X X 345561 0 0 Mary S Holland Vice Chairman Director 40.00 0.00 X X 180000 0 0 Rolf Hazlehurst Attorney 40.00 0.00 X 150000 0 0 Lyndelle Redwood President Director 40.00 0.00 X X 102452 0 0 Rita Shreffler Secretary 40.00 0.00 X 62987 0 0 Heidi Kidd Treasurer 15.00 0.00 X 22054 0 0 Brian Hooker Director 5.00 0.00 X 6145 0 0 Sheila Ealey Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Aimee Rickabus Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robyn Ross Director 0.00 5.00 X 0 0 0 Leila Centner Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Laura Bono Director 0.00 5.00 X 0 0 0 David Centner Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Terena Eisner Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kristina Kristin Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Katie Wright Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tiffany Neu Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Alix Mayer Director 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Baum Director 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 869199 0 0 4 false true false McCollough Law Firm 2290 Gatlin Creek Rd Dripping Springs TX 78620 Legal 299461 Glassman Wyatt Tuttle Cox 26 North Second Street Building Memphis TN 38103 Legal 252978 Baum Hedlund Aristei Goldman 10940 Wilshire Blvd 17th Floor Los Angeles CA 90024 Legal 214000 Schley Look Guthrie Locker LLP 311 E Carrillo Street Ste D Santa Barbara CA 93101 Legal 153034 Roger I Teich 290 Nevada St San Francisco CA 94110 Legal 127070 5 215296 13390 6540972 6769658 74377 74377 30056 13390 46768 -16712 -16712 10212 8536 1676 1676 AMEX early pay discount 525990 5425 5425 5425 6834424 7101 0 57665 913617 913617 293174 293174 105093 105093 76946 76946 76000 76000 1688705 1535671 153034 35429 35429 308902 300622 8280 86523 86523 44139 44139 120656 120656 18675 18675 12525 5000 7525 184114 184114 18100 18100 Merchant Fees 69336 69336 Video and Photo Expenses 510854 510854 Consulting-writers research 117633 117633 Publications 56899 56899 6178 6178 4743498 4325477 418021 0 1645077 2536240 846498 233750 45145 320142 1645077 3981775 73 118161 145399 17788 17861 263560 X 1519709 3718215 107507 1627216 3718215 1645077 3981775 2090926 73 0 X false true X true false X 165937 736555 1063837 2210727 3153040 7330096 17185 59666 36626 113477 165937 736555 1081022 2270393 3189666 7443573 653737 1913431 2567168 653737 1913431 2567168 4876405 100 145 15876 74377 90498 100 145 15876 74377 90498 10212 10212 1126 1888 5425 8439 165937 736655 1082293 2288157 3279680 7552722 0.64560 0.85810 0.01000 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 16031 16031 4743498 4759529 387976 96994 false 243024 387976 631000 946500 55543 16031 71574 60756 96994 157750 236625 55543 16031 71574 6809926 6809926 24498 24498 6834424 4798802 55304 55304 4743498 4743498 Other revenues included on Form 990 (Part XI, line 4b) Retail Value of Fundraising Event Donations as per Sch G Other expenses not included on Form 990 (Part XII, line 2d) Retail Value of Fundraising Event Expenses as per Sch G Silent Voice 36626 13390 23236 16958 5674 Hawaii 6820 6820 4352 2 19784 43446 13390 30056 16958 29810 46768 -16712 X false false false false false false false false false Robert F Kennedy Jr Chairman Chief Legal Counsel 345561 345561 Mary S Holland Vice Chairman Director 180000 180000 Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 COMPLETE COPY OF FORM 990 IS PROVIDED TO THE BOARD PRIOR TO FILING BOARD REVIEWS AND DISCUSSES AT IN PERSON BOARD MEETING, BY TELEPHONE OR VIA EMAIL IF NECESSARY.
