Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $32,223 spent. The Nurturing Roots Program advanced the organizations mission by providing integrative wellness, emotional support, and culturally anchored healing services to families and young women. During the reporting year, the program delivered an estimated 75 individual and group wellness sessions, including mindfulness instruction, energy-based practices, and restorative community circles. Approximately 50 clients participated in these services. Outcome surveys indicated that 78 percent of participants experienced measurable improvements in emotional regulation, stress reduction, or perceived social support. This program represents one of the organization's largest investments due to its direct service intensity and ongoing client engagement.
  2. $16,112 spent. The Fatherhood Program strengthened family well-being by providing culturally relevant support, education, and empowerment for expectant fathers, new fathers, and fathers of young children. Throughout the year, the program facilitated 8 multi-week cohorts and workshop cycles focused on emotional readiness, positive parenting practices, communication skills, stress regulation, and the development of healthy fatherchild relationships. Approximately 37 fathers and father figures participated, with an average attendance rate of 90 percent. Program evaluations showed that over 80 percent of participants reported increased confidence in their parenting role, improved emotional regulation, stronger co-parenting skills, or enhanced understanding of child development. This program represented a significant share of organizational expenses due to its extensive curriculum, recurring sessions, and family support resources.
  3. $16,111 spent. The Childbirth Education and Maternal Wellness Program provided comprehensive prenatal, birthing, and postpartum support using culturally grounded, community-centered approaches. Over the course of the year, the program conducted 8 childbirth education classes, 12 postpartum support circles, and 40 individual maternal wellness consultations. These services collectively supported approximately 90 expectant or new parents. Post-program evaluations revealed that 85 percent of participants felt more fully prepared for childbirth, while 72 percent reported reduced anxiety, improved postpartum adjustment, or increased access to supportive resources. This program remained essential to the organizations mission and accounted for substantial expenditures related to clinical instruction, outreach, and family support services.
