Activity Or Mission DescriptionAs the frontline law firm for poor and low-income individuals throughout Los Angeles County for over 80 years, the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles (LAFLA) works to provide clients with access to fundamental services: food, housing, employment, safety and security. LAFLA is the first place to which thousands of poor people turn to when they need legal assistance for a crisis that threatens their homes, health and livelihood. In 2012 nearly 13,000 individuals and families were provided with legal assistance and more than 55,000 were offered legal information and education. LAFLA operates four (4) Self Help Legal Access Centers at local courthouses in Inglewood, Long Beach, Torrance and Santa Monica. LAFLA has three (3) courthouse domestic violence clinics. We take great pride in having established one of the first Asian Pacific Islander Community Outreach units and one of the first Veteran's benefits programs in the country.ActivityOrMissionDescription

Return ReferencePart X, Line 2:ReturnReference
ExplanationLAFLA is exempt from taxation under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701d. Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all positions taken by LAFLA in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. LAFLA's returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they filed.Explanation
