| Mission | SOLUTIONS JOURNALISM NETWORK, INC. WORKS TO DEFINE, LEGITIMIZE AND SPREAD THE PRACTICE OF "SOLUTIONS JOURNALISM" - RIGOROUS, UNBIASED REPORTING ABOUT CREDIBLE RESPONSES TO SOCIAL PROBLEMS. THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION IS TO ESTABLISH SOLUTIONS JOURNALISM AS A CORE FUNCTION IN JOURNALISM, CONFORMING TO THE PROFESSION'S HIGHEST STANDARDS OF INDEPENDENCE AND ACCURACY. IN KEEPING WITH JOURNALISM'S HISTORIC RESPONSIBILITY TO SPOTLIGHT AND CONTEXTUALIZE SIGNIFICANT ACTIVITY IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST, SOLUTIONS JOURNALISM WILL CIRCULATE RELIABLE INFORMATION ABOUT HOW SOCIETY IS CONFRONTING AND ADAPTING TO MAJOR SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES. | MissionDesc |

| Desc | Newsroom Practice Change (formerly known as "Practice Change"): The Organization leverages its curriculum to catalyze and sustain the practice of solutions journalism in news organizations. It cultivates relationships with individual outlets or with groups of outlets, often resulting in high-impact solutions-focused reporting projects. Representative recent collaborations include those with The Miami Herald, Mississippi Today, and WBEZ public radio in Chicago, as well as with collaborations of multiple news organizations in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Montana, New Hampshire, and Connecticut. These relationships typically begin with a workshop introducing newsroom staff to the solutions approach. The Organization then provides research and editorial consulting support to reporters, producers, and editors. In many cases, the Organization also offers modest financial resources to support reporter travel and other high-value activities. In 2018, the Organization supported projects focused on strengthening democracy, health, education and other topics. Having built a network of over 160 news outlets, the Organization is now also focused on ensuring the sustainability of the solutions-journalism technique in these newsrooms and on fostering shared-learning across its newsroom partners. In certain special relationships, cases that promise to generate great visibility, impact, and learning, the Organization invests in longer-term, higher-impact newsroom projects. In 2018, it extended its "Education Lab" collaboration with The Seattle Times for a sixth year. "Education Lab" has generated dozens of prominent feature stories, hundreds of blog posts and interactive features, and a series of live events - which together have increased audience engagement around education issues and catalyzed notable policy changes. As a fiscal sponsor, the Organization has also supported Honeyguide Media, a start-up online news organization that produces solutions oriented coverage of education, health, and international development issues. The fiscal sponsorship agreement with Honeyguide Media ended on June 30, 2018. | Desc |

| Desc | Knowledge Dissemination - (formerly known as "Pattern Change"): The Organization continues to expand and manage the Solutions Story Tracker, which now contains over 5,500 stories tagged by issue and problem-solving approach, as well as SolutionsU, a suite of tools to help all learners easily find, integrate, and share solutions stories, to support teaching and learning in social innovation and other topics. In 2018, the Organization launched the Story Fellowship. Fellows vet stories for high-caliber, solutions-focused journalism for the Solutions Story Tracker. The inaugural nine Story Fellows doubled the number of stories in the Story Tracker, adding 2,748 stories. They also curated more than 150 story collections. The community of registered SolutionsU users tripled in 2018, increasing by 2,203 users. The Organization continues to support faculty in developing and sharing teaching materials based on solutions journalism stories in a range of disciplines. Since the original "Story Tracker" launched in 2016, faculty members have used solutions journalism stories in 130 courses including 87 courses in 2018 alone, in disciplines ranging from anthropology to business to public policy. To date, faculty members have reported that more than 5,200 students have been exposed to solutions journalism stories through their courses. | Desc |

| Desc | Journalist Practice Change - (formerly known as "Mass Spread"): Complementing its work with news organizations, the Organization seeks to advance the adoption of the solutions approach by individual journalists. Online network: The Organization's member website, The Hub, continued to act as the central repository for all the resources and programs we offer. New to the Hub includes a list of 20+ editors accepting solutions pitches, a mentorship program with four active cohorts, as well as almost a dozen translations of the SJ Basic Toolkit. On average, users spent 21% longer on the site than in 2016, and total visits increased by 11%. Membership in the Hub grew by 218% in 2018, increasing from 1,075 to 3,415 members. The Organization continues to perform well within its social media communities. In 2018 on Twitter, the Organization's following increased by 50% to more than 17,000 followers. Its Facebook group grew by 73%, averaging 4.7% growth per month. Community building: The Organization held its second annual summit in November 2018, bringing together 90 journalists and journalism-school professors for collaborations around solutions journalism. As with last year, feedback from this anchor event was strong: 81% of attendees who responded to our survey said it exceeded their expectations. Additionally, the Organization held key events such as the West Coast Regional Convening, connecting and supporting members from three states, and a gathering that highlighted responses to the #metoo movement. The Organization's volunteer-led communities continued to hold smaller events throughout 2018 in six U.S. cities. Journalism schools: The Organization's work to integrate solutions reporting into journalism-school curriculum has created a core of four beacon journalism schools who champion the practice in their institutions. The Organization has also established meaningful relationships with at least two dozen other institutions that have committed to incorporating the solutions approach into their curricula. Finally, 2018 brought the launch of the Journalism School Curriculum Builder, a resource that supports educators interested in incorporating solutions elements into their journalism courses. Hub membership of journalism-school professors grew by 20% within a week of launching the toolkit. | Desc |

| Explanation | The Organization is subject to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (the "FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740, Income Taxes, as it relates to accounting and reporting for uncertainty in income taxes. FOR THE ORGANIZATION, THESE PROVISIONS COULD BE APPLICABLE TO THE INCURRENCE OF UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME TAX ("UBIT") ON THE DISALLOWED TRANSIT AND QUALIFIED PARKING FRINGE BENEFITS. Because the Organization HAS ACCRUED THE TAX LIABILITY FOR UBIT AND because of its general NOT-FOR-PROFIT status, management believes ASC Topic 740 has not had, and is not anticipated to have, a material impact on the Organization's financial statements. | ExplanationTxt |
