| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4 | Statement of Purpose: United Way's creating pathways out of poverty plan combats poverty at its roots - lack of access to a quality education, lack of a stable home, and financial instability and we focus on long-term solutions. We do this by working side-by-side with public, private and non-profit sectors to tackle the root causes of poverty in a holistic and sustainable manner. Our Mission: To permanently break the cycle of poverty for our most vulnerable neighbors: families, students, veterans and the homeless. Our 10-year creating pathways out of poverty action plan began in 2007 and focuses on providing long-term solutions to three root causes of poverty with goals in each area. HOUSING: CREATE AND SUSTAIN AN END TO HOMELESSNESS, STARTING WITH VETERANS AND OUR CHRONICALLY HOMELESS NEIGHBORS. EDUCATION: INCREASE THE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION RATE TO 85%, ENSURING ALL STUDENTS GRADUATE AND ARE PREPARED FOR COLLEGE AND THE WORKFORCE. FINANCIAL STABILITY: REDUCE VETERAN UNEMPLOYMENT BY HALF AND IMPROVE THE FINANCIAL STABILITY FOR 10,000 FAMILIES. How we're leading the movement to end poverty SCALING SOLUTIONS Improving policy and driving systems change is a critical part of the work we do at United Way. In a region as large, complex and fragmented as Los Angeles County, systems change is the only way to scale long-term solutions that truly break the cycle of poverty. We advocate for and influence public policy, demanding solutions that provide lasting change while making long-term commitments to implementing them. We also research social problems to deliver data and evidence-based solutions that demonstrate real outcomes. LEVERAGING PARTNERSHIPS Solving complex problems like poverty cant be done by the power of one it requires the power of many. This is the reason WHY we focus on bringing people together to work on our regions most difficult issues. We work side-by-side with public, private and non-profit sectors to tackle the root causes of poverty; and we build on programs and strategies that impact and influence a greater number of neighbors and communities. MAKING COMMUNITY IMPACT Through our grants, we invest in local nonprofits and programs which will have the greatest impact in reaching our goals to end poverty, expanding their resources to meet the needs of the most vulnerable people in our communities. We invest in 150 high-performing non-profit partners who are aligned with the goals in our three pillars. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY - ENDING HOMELESSNESS THOUGH HOUSING STABILITY GOAL CREATE AND SUSTAIN AN END TO HOMELESSNESS, STARTING WITH VETERANS AND OUR CHRONICALLY HOMELESS NEIGHBORS. OUR WORK AND RESULTS Through United Way of Greater Los Angeless Home For Good initiative, launched in 2010 with the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce and powered by the partnership of over 200 cross-sector leaders, we have housed over 33,000 formerly homeless people, and weve reduced veteran homelessness by 60% in the last five years. Each year we hold HomeWalk, a 5K family run/walk that raises funds and awareness around ending homelessness, mobilizing over 85,000 walkers and raising $7.6M over its ten-year history. Through HomeWalk, we have transformed 18,000 lives with the stability of a home. United Way of Greater Los Angeles was engaged in the campaign to pass Prop HHH, the most significant effort to end homelessness. The measure passed by an overwhelmingly 77% of voters in November 2016, and will raise $1.2 billion to create 10,000 units of permanent supportive housing enough to house all of our chronically homeless in the city of Los Angeles. United Way of Greater Los Angeles helped develop the Coordinated Entry System (CES), which matches homeless individuals to the optimal resources for their needs. Piloted in 2011, CES now operates in all areas of Los Angeles County through the support and coordination of over 100 local service providers. CES now serves as a national model for solving homelessness. Over the last five years, the Home for Good Funders Collaborative has jointly invested $1 billion in public resources and private philanthropy that provide permanent solutions, like the Coordinated Entry System, to end homelessness in Los Angeles County. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B | Program Service Activity - Helping students graduate and prepare for college and the workforce Goal INCREASE THE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION RATE TO 85%, ENSURING ALL STUDENTS GRADUATE AND ARE PREPARED FOR COLLEGE AND THE WORKFORCE. Our work and results 2007 Statistics - LAUSD: 67% grad rate; 47% A-G completions with a "Cbetter - Countywide: 76% grad rate; 40% A-G completions with a "Cbetter 2015 Statistics (2016 data not yet finalized) - LAUSD: 72% grad rate, 52% A-G completions with a "Cbetter - Countywide: 79% grad rate, 47% A-G completions with a "Cbetter Service Delivery - 40,000 work-based learning opportunities created - 4,000+ books distributed to students and families - Approximately 250 families enrolled in parent literacy programs - Approximately 24,000 students enrolled in after-school programs Convening Through our education partners, 19,331 students have received academic tutoring, mentoring, counseling services and 9,060 students and parents participated in shaping education policy. Through "CLASS" (Coalition for Los Angeles Student Success), United Ways educational justice coalition of nonprofit advocacy and community organizations, we have fought for key policy changes and equitable school experiences for all LAUSD students, mobilizing over 150,000 students, parents, and teachers. A primary focus for United Way over the last 10 years, and of "CLASS" since it began several years ago, has been access to quality A-G courses and students completion of these courses with a "Cbetter. The LAUSD School Board currently has a graduation requirement that students complete their A-G courses with a "Dbetter, and our coalition is working to shift this to a "Cbetter requirement, as well as ensuring schools are working with students early in high school to make a plan for successful completion of these courses. 26,500 individuals have engaged in training and advocacy and secured $85M to ensure resources are invested into proper college and career-ready support programs among schools with the highest need. The passage of LCFF (Local Control Funding Formula) presents a tremendous opportunity to underserved students our local schools (students in foster care, English Language Learners, & homeless students). Schools are required to go through a community feedback process that will shape the use of local dollars (through the LCAP process). We hold community town halls and forums for parents to provide input in this process, and we publish a scorecard each year that breaks down LAUSDs effectiveness and shortfalls in implementing LCFF as a tool for advocacy and mobilization. United Way of Greater Los Angeles and the Communities for Los Angeles Student Success ("CLASS") Coalition launched the Parent Engagement Toolkit, aimed at helping parents navigate the complex Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) system, and determine if their school is adequately supporting their children toward graduation, college and career. The focus of the Toolkit, designed by United Way, is to help strengthen and support parent-principal partnerships, create a system-wide conversation about inadequate funding for high-need student populations, and encourage school sites to rethink budget allocations. The free printed and downloadable guide is available in English and Spanish. More than 5,000 copies of the free Parent Engagement Toolkit will be distributed to parents. Since 2013, 150 student leaders have graduated from United Ways Young Civic Leaders Program. Student Leaders complete an eight-month fellowship where they delve deeply into education policy and social justice while leading campaigns at their school sites. During the summer, they participate in internships with education and community organizations. LA Youth Vote: United Ways effort to register/pre-register students to vote. This year alone, over 2,000 high school students registered to vote. Through thEsE efforts, the community has more input over who will manage LAUSDs $8 billion budget, which directly affects the lives of 650,000 students and approximately 35,000 educators. The Movement Strategy Center is currently running this campaign in partnership with United Way. United Way of Greater Los Angeles created student-led candidate forums for three open LAUSD Board seats. This unique approach is designed to put students at the forefront of the educational dialogue, and to draw the media to shine a spotlight on these school board races that are often overlooked. United Way is the backbone for the Linked Learning program in Los Angeles County. Linked Learning is a transformative educational model that integrates rigorous academics with real world workplace experiences. To date, more than 40,000 students across the County have participated in this career-based learning opportunity, ranging from internships to career days. |

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINES 15A AND 15B | United Way of Greater Los Angeles Fiscal Year 2016 Human Resources Committee Report This report was approved by the Human Resources Committee ("the committee") of the Board of the United Way of Greater Los Angeles ("UWGLA") on March 28, 2017 for inclusion with the required Form 990 filing. The Committee aims to fully disclose the compensation paid out in an open and transparent manner which is consistent with best practices and applicable regulatory requirements. To that end, this report provides information on United Way of Greater Los Angeles' governance and oversight of executive compensation and benefit programs, general compensation philosophy, and key features of the executive compensation program. The practice of the Committee includes all of the following: - Adoption of sound corporate governance procedures including a compensation committee charter and a regular calendar of activities. - Adoption of a comprehensive compensation policy statement, including: peer groups, sources of comparability data, market philosophy, use of incentive arrangements, etc. - Development of effective incentive arrangements, including documented goals, award caps, and alignment of pay with organization mission, values, and performance. - Convening of regular compensation evaluations and establish a "rebuttable presumption" of reasonableness. - Obtaining market comparability data from independent sources. - Avoid any appearance of conflict of interest. - Apply "initial contract" exception where available and appropriate. - Maintain well documented minutes of all board or committee meetings. Within the spirit of the parameters of the above best practices, the intent of the Committee is to provide a total compensation program for the CEO and Vice Presidents that promotes the United Ways long-term strategic objectives. In seeking to achieve such a program, the Committee considers many factors in determining how to set executive remuneration including: UWGLAs mission and goals, the performance of UWGLA as an organization, the market for executive talent, and the performance of each executive. Given the Committees focus on performance and the objectives of the organization, the Committee also aims to put a portion of each executives compensation at risk in the form of a performance pay plan. On an annual basis, the Committee is responsible for evaluating the performance of the CEO and recommending to the full Board for approval any adjustments to this compensation and benefits, including incentive or performance pay awards. The Committee is also responsible for approving incentive awards and any adjustments to the compensation and benefits of the Vice Presidents, as recommended by the CEO. Also, the Committee is responsible for reviewing and recommending to the full Board for approval any new compensation or benefits plans or programs, or any changes to existing plans and programs that relate to the CEO or the Vice Presidents. General Compensation Philosophy The United Way of Greater Los Angeles is dedicated to making a measurable impact in Los Angeles and its surrounding communities. The United Ways mission is to improve the quality of life for everyone in greater Los Angeles by creating pathways out of poverty. The Committee understands the importance of a strong leadership team in maintaining and strengthening UWGLAs ability to serve communities, and has therefore adopted a compensation policy that is consistent with the organizations mission. The primary objective of UWGLAs compensation policy is to provide reasonable and competitive total compensation opportunities to executives, consistent with market-based compensation practices for individuals possessing the experience and skills needed to improve the overall performance of the organization. The organizations executive compensation program is designed to: - Provide base compensation at the median of the local market; or, national market depending on the nature of the executive position - Provide total compensation potential to be around the 75th percentile through its variable Performance Pay Plan in those years when the results are outstanding - Be flexible to reward individual accomplishments as well as organizational success - Encourage the attraction and retention of high caliber executives - Provide a competitive total compensation package, including benefits - Balance the need to be competitive within the limits of available financial resources - Ensure that pay is perceived to be fair and equitable - Ensure that the program is easy to explain, understand and administer - Ensure that program complies with state and federal legislation In order to reinforce pay-for-performance and to ensure a focus on the UWGLA mission, the Committee believes a portion of executive compensation should be at-risk. As such, the Committee has instituted a Performance Pay Plan which provides the CEO and Vice Presidents the opportunity to earn performance awards based on successfully producing the results determined annually in UWGLAs performance Scorecard. The annual goals which form the Scorecard are tied directly to our mission of Creating Pathways out of Poverty and the 10 year long-term goals noted below. - Our mission is to permanently break the cycle of poverty for our most vulnerable neighbors: families, students, veterans, and the homeless. - In our education work, our goal is to increase the high school graduation rate to 85%, ensuring all students graduate prepared for college and the workforce. - In our housing work, our goal is to create and sustain an end to homelessness, starting with veterans and our chronically homeless neighbors. - In our financial stability work, our goal is to reduce veteran unemployment by half and improve the financial stability for 10,000 families. To help the Committee evaluate its compensation policy and related programs, the Committee periodically commissions an independent consulting firm to review CEO and Vice Presidents compensation to ensure the compensation programs and levels reflect the Committees commitment to aligning compensation with organization goals, objectives, and performance. In those years where an independent consultant is not engaged, the Human Resources Committee relies on general market conditions to make any changes to the executive compensation program. Although for Fiscal Year 2015 the Committee did not engage an outside consultant; based on the data supplied by the consultant from 2012 and general market condition, the Committee made some changes which are reflected below. Chief Executive Officer Compensation For CEO compensation comparisons, UWGLA utilizes several national and local surveys to determine the pay of the Chief Executive Officer. The compensation program consists of four key elements: (i) Total Cash Compensation including base compensation and performance pay, (ii) Health and Welfare Benefits, (iii) Retirement Benefits, and (iv) Other Benefits and Allowances. Base Compensation: The Committee strives to provide market competitive base salaries for comparable positions. For the CEO, the market is deemed to be National as well as comparable United Way organizations throughout the Country. Based on the compensation evaluation performed by an outside consultant from 2012 and general market condition, we were able to determine that the CEO base salary was comparable to the market for similar positions. As such, in Fiscal Year 2016 the Committee recommended the base salary for the CEO remain the same for Calendar Year 2015 at $315,000 (for Fiscal Year 2016 $315,000). The full Board approved the recommendation in July 2015. (Note: The difference between the base salary approved by the Committee and the Board and the amount reported in Schedule J Part II B(i) of the Form 990 is $5,845 and represents the employees pretax contribution to the employers group health insurance.) Performance Pay: The program provides the CEO the opportunity to earn a performance-based incentive of up to 25% of her base salary. The performance pay opportunity is directly tied to achievement of the goals which are set forth in the annual organizational Scorecard. No change to this arrangement was made for Calendar Year 2015. For Calendar Year 2015, Ms. Buik received performance pay of $40,507. While it is the intent to award Performance Pay based on predetermined goals and performance relating to achieving these goals, the Human Resources Committee of the Board may, at its discretion, adjust the actual bonus payments due to exceptional circumstances that may arise during the fiscal period. The CEO was awarded a $15,000 for taking on additional responsibilities while the Organization searched for its Chief Operating Officer. Total Cash Compensation: The Committee annually evaluates the CEOs performance against several key objectives including the Scorecard results. In addition to measuring the CEOs performance against these objectives, the Committee also eval |
