X 1 50864 VALUE WHEN DONATED 0 0 0 FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION: FFI AND OUR PARTNERS BELIEVE THAT WE ALL NEED AND HAVE A RIGHT TO WELLBEING-A SET OF CORE NEEDS AND EXPERIENCES THAT HUMAN UNDERSTANDING AND RESEARCH DEMONSTRATE ARE UNIVERSALLY REQUIRED, IN COMBINATION, FOR HEALTH AND HOPE. HOWEVER, EVERYONE DOES NOT HAVE EQUAL ACCESS TO WELLBEING. FFI'S PURPOSE IS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO WELLBEING, ESPECIALLY FOR PEOPLE, FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES WHO ARE DEEPLY MARGINALIZED. FFI'S MISSION IS DRAWN FROM OUR TWO KEY DISCOVERIES: 1)THE PROGRAMS AROUND THE COUNTRY MOST EFFECTIVE IN SUPPORTING PEOPLE WHO FACE MULTIPLE CHALLENGES TO MAKE AND SUSTAIN CHANGE SHARE A "FULL FRAME APPROACH", A SET OF PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES THAT HELP PEOPLE BUILD THEIR ASSETS AND MINIMIZE TRADEOFFS IN FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING: SOCIAL CONNECTEDNESS, STABILITY, SAFETY, MASTERY AND MEANINGFUL ACCESS TO RELEVANT RESOURCES; AND 2)MANY MORE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SYSTEMS WANT TO OPERATE FROM A FULL FRAME APPROACH AND ORIENT THEIR SYSTEMS AROUND WELLBEING, BUT NEED CAPACITY-BUILDING SUPPORT AND MORE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTS TO DO SO. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, ORGANIZATION PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: ONE OF FFI'S KEY STRATEGIES IS TO PARTNER WITH PUBLIC SYSTEMS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, AFFECTED COMMUNITIES AND PHILANTHROPY TO HELP ORIENT THEM AROUND WELLBEING BY APPLYING FFI'S EVIDENCE-INFORMED FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING FRAMEWORK. FFI AND ITS PARTNERS HAVE CATALYZED CHANGE IN FIELDS AS DIVERSE AS HOMELESSNESS, DOMESTIC AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE, JUVENILE JUSTICE AND CHILD WELFARE. THE FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING FRAMEWORK FOCUSES ON PEOPLE, NOT PROBLEMS; RECOGNIZES AND LEVERAGES PEOPLE'S AND COMMUNITIES' STRENGTHS WHILE SUPPORTING THEM TO OVERCOME CHALLENGES; AND PROVIDES A COMMON LANGUAGE AMONG OTHERWISE SILOED SYSTEMS SERVING THE SAME POPULATIONS. PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDE A FIVE-YEAR PARTNERSHIP WITH MISSOURI'S JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM THAT APPLIES THE FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING TO INCREASE LAW-ABIDING RATES AND PRODUCTIVE COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT AMONG YOUTH LEAVING RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT; A PARTNERSHIP WITH MISSOURI'S CHILDREN'S DIVISION TO USE THE FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING AS THE FOUNDATION OF A FULL REFORM OF MISSOURI'S CHILD WELFARE SYSTEM; THE LEARNING FROM WHAT GOES WELL INSTITUTE WHICH IS BUILDING THE CAPACITY OF 3 CALIFORNIA COMMUNITIES TO BETTER ADDRESS THE INTERSECTION OF MULTIPLE FORMS OF VIOLENCE AND OPPRESSION; AND CONSULTATIVE AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE WORK WITH MASSACHUSETTS STATE AGENCIES TO USE THE FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING TO INTEGRATE RESPONSES TO SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL/DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WHO ARE HOMELESS OR AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS. IN ADDITION, FFI REGULARLY CONDUCTS FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING TRAININGS AND PRESENTATIONS FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. WITH THESE PARTNERS AND OUR ALLIES IN COMMUNITY, POLICY, RESEARCH AND PHILANTHROPY, WE ARE CO CREATING THE CONDITIONS THAT SUPPORT WELLBEING AND MORE EQUITABLE ACCESS TO WELLBEING FOR ALL.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C TO ENSURE THE ORGANIZATION OPERATES IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH CHARITABLE PURPOSES AND DOES NOT ENGAGE IN ACTIVITIES THAT COULD JEOPARDIZE ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS, PERIODIC REVIEWS SHALL BE CONDUCTED. THE PERIODIC REVIEW SHALL, AT A MINIMUM, INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING SUBJECTS: (A) WHETHER COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS AND BENEFITS ARE REASONABLE, BASED ON COMPETENT SURVEY INFORMATION, AND THE RESULT OF ARM'S LENGTH BARGAINING; AND (B) WHETHER PARTNERSHIPS, JOINT VENTURES AND ARRANGEMENTS WITH MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATIONS CONFORM TO THE ORGANIZATION'S WRITTEN POLICIES, ARE PROPERLY RECORDED , REFLECT REASONABLE INVESTMENT OR PAYMENTS FOR GOODS AND SERVICES, FURTHER CHARITABLE PURPOSES AND DO NOT RESULT IN INUREMENT, IMPERMISSIBLE PRIVATE BENEFIT OR IN AN EXCESS BENEFIT TRANSACTION.
