| Desc | Impact Litigation: Justice Action Center JAC uses litigation and storytelling to advocate for unseen and overlooked issues faced by immigrants. We ensure the richness and diversity of the immigrant experience is heard both inside and outside the courtroom. Impact legislation is an important tool to advance the rights of immigrants. JAC litigates a select number of cases designed to address unmet needs of immigrant communities. JAC also provides legal expertise and litigates directly with providers of direct legal services to immigrants or other litigators on civil rights issues impacting immigrants. The cases on JAC's docket are primarily in federal court, but JAC will litigate in select state courts as necessary to produce optimal results for immigrant communities. | Desc |

| Desc | Communications: Justice Action Center's JAC model depends on placing equal emphasis on storytelling and litigation. We recognize that winning a lawsuit alone will not lead to the systemic change we seek. We strive to build a new framework that uses litigation and narrative work to tangibly improve immigrants' lives. JAC produces original communications and digital content focused on the immigrant experience and perspectives. Our storytelling work is designed to strive to tangibly improve immigrants' lives and is rooted in the notion that transformative change will only occur when dominant narratives about immigration and belonging shift. These shifts are part of a broader ecosystem of work JAC seeks to participate in that ecosystem by using the microphone provided by litigation to center and uplift immigrant stories. Moreover, we aim to decode the legal system to help dismantle what is often a barrier to action and advocacy by immigrants and advocates. | Desc |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b | Form 990 was prepared by outside accountants and reviewed by the director. A copy of the 990 was provided to the board prior to filing with the IRS. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c | Each person subject to the conflict of interest policy annually signs a statement on the conflict of interest disclosure form or such other form as the board adopts, which at a minimum affirms that the person has received a copy of the policy has read and understands the policy has agreed to comply with the policy and understands the corporation is charitable and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. Prior to voting on a contract, transaction or matter in which an actual conflict of interest is found to exist, the board or committee will follow the procedures described: a the interested person makes a presentation at the board or committee meeting at which such transaction is being considered, but after the presentation, he or she leaves the meeting during the discussion or, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. b The chairperson of the board or the committee, if appropriate, appoints a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. c After exercising due diligence, the board or committee determining whether the corporation could obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. d If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the board or committee determining whether the transaction or arrangement is in the corporation's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, the board makes its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement by the vote. If the board has reasonable cause to believe that an interested person has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it informs the interested person of the basis for such belief and affords the interested person an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the interested person's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board determines the interested person has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it takes appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a | In determining compensation of the organization's founder and director, numerous 990s of other nonprofits and compensation of top officers were reviewed to set a proposed salary. This was discussed in detail with the treasurer and the salary was approved by the board. |
