WE ENVISION A WORLD WHERE CITY GROWTH IS EQUITABLE AND SELF-DIRECTED-WHERE THE BEST LOCAL SOLUTIONS ARE BROUGHT TO A CITY-WIDE SCALE. false false 393712 OUR PROJECTS FOCUS ON COMMUNITIES IN TRANSITION THAT ARE OFTEN UNDERSERVED OR OVERLOOKED BY TRADITIONAL SERVICE PROVIDERS. LOCAL CITY DEPARTMENTS WANT TO SUPPORT AND IMPROVE THESE AREAS, BUT ARE LEFT WITH LITTLE BUDGET AND CAPACITY TO DO SO. OUR UNIQUE NON-PROFIT FEE-FOR-SERVICE MODEL ENABLES US TO SERVE COMMUNITIES THAT NEED THE MOST SUPPORT, AND DO SO IN A WAY THAT PRESERVES THEIR LOCAL IDENTITY. THESE COMMUNITIES DON'T NEED NEW STRATEGIES OR IDEAS LABELED "INNOVATIVE" BY OUTSIDERS. THEY NEED AN ADVOCATE, A TRANSLATOR, AN INTERMEDIARY TO RAISE UP WHAT IS ALREADY WORKING LOCALLY AND GROW BY THEIR OWN RULES. THROUGH OUR PROCESS WE ELEVATE WHAT WORKS, AND COLLABORATE WITH CITY DEPARTMENTS AND DEVELOPERS TO CREATE MUCH NEEDED LOCAL CONTEXTUAL CHANGE. WE BELIEVE EVERYONE DESERVES AN INCLUSIVE PROCESS FOR THE GROWTH OF THEIR COMMUNITY. 393712 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false false 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 true 13 0 false 11 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true false false false false false false false false CA X HELEN LEUNG 3235045391 2806 CLEARWATER STREET LOS ANGELES CA 90039 X NAOMI IWASAKI BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MIA LEHRER BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 VINIT MUKHIJA BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ALEX SASAYAMA BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SHAUNA NEP President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 RENEE DAKE WILSON Vice President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MARK SOTO Secretary 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MOTT SMITH Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ELIZABETH TIMME CO-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 20.00 0.00 X 36660 0 0 HELEN LEUNG CO-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 0.00 X 84360 0 0 121020 0 false false false 0 146567 296859 443426 CONSULTING 900099 378017 378017 378017 0 0 0 0 0 93247 14717 78530 0 0 OTHER INCOME 900099 2782 2782 2782 902755 380799 0 0 0 0 121020 49771 68343 2906 0 287595 118278 162411 6906 0 0 35867 14751 20255 861 0 0 0 0 0 0 20340 20340 627 627 0 0 0 37682 37682 7506 10 7496 0 0 42 42 0 1391 1391 19844 19844 PROJECT MATERIALS & SUPPLIES 140755 140725 30 INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS 65446 60537 4909 LICENSE & PERMITS 8461 8211 250 PAYROLL FEES 3452 1420 1949 83 5394 9 5385 755422 393712 350954 10756 87223 183612 0 0 51827 143000 0 0 0 0 0 4173 2782 2782 1391 0 0 0 0 1300 141832 329303 3800 11797 32141 3800 43938 X 138032 285365 138032 285365 141832 329303 147333 X false true X true false X 333294 435319 478554 692291 902755 2842213 0 0 333294 435319 478554 692291 902755 2842213 0 2842213 0 0 0 2842213 1.00000 X 4173 2782 1391 1391 X 902755 902755 902755 755422 755422 755422 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization is exempt from taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"), and from federal and state income taxes under Section 501(a) of the IRC and corresponding sections of the California Revenue and Taxation Code.
