In 2013, the organizations Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) accredited staff assisted 2,009 individuals with low-cost immigration legal consultations and legal representation. Clients were mainly farm workers and other low-income Latino immigrants who reside in Californias San Joaquin Valley and Central Coast and in Arizonas Phoenix metro area. The organization helped its constituents apply for citizenship, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), U-Visas, family petitions, and other immigration benefits.The organization also provided hundreds of low-income individuals with tax preparation assistance, which helped many families attain the Earned Income Tax Credit. Additionally, close to 3,000 community members were provided assistance with determining eligibility for safety net and health insurance programs such as CalFresh (food stamps), Medi-Cal, Covered California (ACA), Healthy Families, CalWORKs, unemployment and social security. Notably, the UFW Foundations outreach in the community reached at least 48,614 people through in person outreach activities. The organization hosted informational sessions to educate the community about workplace health and safety; the eligibility requirements for safety net programs, the Affordable Care Act, and available immigration relief; and the rights of immigrants (regardless of immigration status). In total, 667 informational sessions and outreach activities were held in California, Arizona, and Oregon. 423404 CIVIC PARTICIPATIONThe UFW Foundation organized over 60 events and actions in California, Washington, Oregon, and Arizona related to the need for immigration reform that engaged more than 20,000 community leaders, activists, students, and farm workers. These events included sit-ins, marches, rallies, vigils, fasts, press conferences and forums, postcard collection drives, caravans, social media campaigns and creative actions aimed to draw attention in unique ways to farm workers lives and the need for immigration reform. Moreover, farm workers became spokespeople for their communities by interacting with news media and social media, sharing their stories, and informing policymakers of the needs of farm workers and immigrants. 166054 POLICY AND RESEARCHThe UFW Foundation is involved in multiple collaborations focused on preparing for immigration reform or administrative relief. The organizations Executive Director, Diana Tellefson Torres, is co-chair for the communications committee of the Coalition for Immigration Reform Implementation (CIRI) that is being led by the Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc. (CLINIC), and is working to develop a national communications strategy that reaches legalization-eligible immigrants with information regarding the law while making sure that it warns against the consequences of receiving assistance from fraudulent providers. The UFW Foundation also is an active participant in a coalition, named Ready California, which is working to make sure that California is prepared for legalization implementation. The group has focused on capacity surveying and education around the importance of capacity building to be able to serve the needs of immigrants. The UFW Foundation helped initiate and continues to participate as a steering committee member in a legalization implementation group called the Central Valley Immigration Integration Collaborative. The collaboration has developed a report detailing the areas of focus for legalization implementation in the region. 1546839 true true false true false false false false false false true false false true 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 false false false false false false true false false true false true 21 0 false 46 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 5 3 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true false true false false false X Linda Rockstad 6618236111 29700 Woodford Tehachapi Rd Keene CA 93531 Guadalupe Martinez Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ramon Ramirez Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Gina Montoya Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Arturo S Rodriguez President 1.00 40.00 X 0 78679 0 Tanis Ybarra Sec/Trea 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Diana Tellefson Torres Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X 52500 0 0 52500 78679 0 false false false 0 1210135 1210135 MEMBERSHIP DUES 47180 47180 PROGRAM SERVICE FEES 283223 283223 330403 8301 8301 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Miscellaneous 0 1548839 330403 8301 0 0 0 0 52500 52500 0 1079918 1073700 6218 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 131737 115216 8935 7586 0 153963 137071 12425 4467 0 0 93669 85456 3543 4670 102773 99069 2053 1651 0 0 0 0 0 0 Comminications 36827 36327 500 0 1651387 1546839 79456 25092 317258 288717 0 0 2572 2159 0 0 0 0 7718 14369 16032 8393 1810 7639 133759 128376 0 0 0 3795 115487 466912 556747 101573 74913 552302 101573 627215 X -27836 -459837 393175 389369 365339 -70468 466912 556747 X -102548 -333259 X false true X false false X 322083 686164 530945 1025686 1257315 3822193 0 0 322083 686164 530945 1025686 1257315 3822193 0 3822193 19983 3398 4539 4209 10407 42536 0 216935 100348 26042 22427 -2106 363646 4228375 0.90390 0.87730 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false 140271 150009 1432 291712 437568 45123 20986 7158 73267 35068 37502 358 72928 109392 20052 3498 23550 16032 8393 7639 7639 DEPOSITS AND ADVANCES 4895 RELATED PARTY RECEIVABLE 3636 115487 DEFERRED REVENUE 489539 DUE TO RELATED PARTY 62763 552302 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process A copy of the form 990 was provided to the Organization's board president and controller prior to filing, in keeping with their duties as delegated by the Organization's board.
