FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D, OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES:	JUSTICE PROJECT THE GOALS OF JUSTICE PROJECT INCLUDE: CHALLENGE THE STRENGTHENING OF THE POLICE STATE BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, ENSURE PROTESTORS ARE NOT CRIMINALIZED, TRANSFORM POLICING TO ENSURE COMMUNITY ACCOUNTABILITY AND SAFETY FOR COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, RE-DEFINE SAFETY IN COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, INCREASE AWARENESS OF LOCAL AND NATIONAL POLICING AND MASS INCARCERATION ISSUES, REDUCE HARMFUL USE OF DISCRETION IN APPLICATION OF CRIMINAL LAWS (INCLUDING PROSECUTORIAL DISCRETION), STRENGTHEN THE CAPACITY OF THE NATIONAL MOVEMENT TO END OVER-POLICING AND PROFILING, AND CHANGE THE DISCOURSE ON CRIMINALIZATION, ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERMATH OF HIGH PROFILE POLICE MISCONDUCT. IN ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI, A LOCAL JAIL (THE WORKHOUSE) HOUSES ALMOST 1,000 PEOPLE, 95% OF WHOM ARE THERE PRE-TRIAL BECAUSE THEY CANNOT AFFORD BAIL. THERE ARE 8 TIMES MORE BLACK DETAINEES THAN THERE ARE WHITE DETAINEES, EVEN THOUGH ONLY 47% OF ST. LOUIS CITY'S POPULATION IS BLACK. THE AVERAGE STAY IS ALMOST 300 DAYS. WE FILED A LAWSUIT IN JANUARY, 2019 IN ORDER TO CHANGE THE POLICIES AND REDUCE THE JAIL POPULATION SO THE WORKHOUSE CAN BE CLOSED. THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ALLEGES THAT THE CITY AND COURTS ARE RUNNING AN ILLEGAL CASH BAIL SCHEME THAT RESULTED IN THE UNLAWFUL DETENTION OF HUNDREDS OF POOR PEOPLE AND BLACK PEOPLE. IN JUNE, WE EXPERIENCED A MAJOR VICTORY IN THE CAMPAIGN WHEN A FEDERAL JUDGE ISSUED A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION REQUIRING BAIL HEARINGS TO DETERMINE ABILITY TO PAY BAIL TO EVERY PERSON ARRESTED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THEIR ARREST AND A HEARING WITHIN ONE WEEK TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE CURRENTLY BEING HELD IN JAIL AWAITING TRIAL. THIS SHORTENED TIMELINE AND FOCUS ON A FAIR CASH BAIL WILL MEAN THAT PEOPLE WILL NO LONGER FACE SITTING IN A JAIL FOR MONTHS WAITING FOR A HEARING WHEN THEY HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D, OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES CONTINUE:	IMMIGRANT JUSTICE OUR IMMIGRANT JUSTICE PROJECT HAS BEEN CHALLENGED BY THE IMMENSE ATTACKS ON IMMIGRANTS. DURING THESE DIFFICULT TIMES, WE HAVE RESPONDED TO THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GROUPS PROVIDING RESEARCH, ANALYSIS, TRAINING, AS WELL AS COMMUNICATION SUPPORT. WE HAVE WORKED WITH GRASSROOTS PARTNERS TO RAISE PUBLIC AWARENESS ABOUT CRIMINALIZATION AND DETENTION OF IMMIGRANTS, LINKING THESE ISSUES TO CRIMINALIZATION OF OTHER COMMUNITIES OF COLOR WHEN POSSIBLE, AND DEMONSTRATING THE PARALLELED FATE OF IMMIGRANTS AND NON-IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES OF COLOR IN THE STRUGGLE FOR RACIAL JUSTICE. ON APRIL 2, 2019, WE WORKED WITH OUR PARTNERS, JUNTOS, AND CASA SAN JOSE AND CONDUCTED A STAKEHOLDER VISIT OF YORK COUNTY PRISON IN YORK, PENNSYLVANIA. ADVOCATES HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET WITH OFFICIALS, TOUR THE PRISON, ASK QUESTIONS, AND MEET WITH OVER 30 PEOPLE WHO ARE DETAINED. ICE HAD ABOUT 690 IMMIGRANTS DETAINED AT YORK (THE TOTAL CAPACITY OF THE PRISON IS ABOUT 1500). AT YORK, THE PEOPLE IMPRISONED AT THIS FACILITY HAVE TO SLEEP, EAT, BATHE, AND RELIEVE THEMSELVES ALL IN THE SAME GIANT OPEN ROOM. TO BRING AWARENESS TO THESE CONDITIONS AND HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE, WE SUBMITTED AN ADVOCACY LETTER TO ICE AND THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS. IN COLLABORATION WITH PUENTE HUMAN RIGHTS MOVEMENT (PUENTE), ADVANCEMENT PROJECT AND PUENTE HAVE CO-AUTHORED THE REPORT "THE CARCERAL STATE OF ARIZONA: THE HUMAN COST OF BEING CONFINED" TO SHED LIGHT ON THE HARMFUL WAYS THAT MIGRANTS OF COLOR ARE CRIMINALIZED AND DEHUMANIZED AS PART OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS CRISIS THAT IS MASS INCARCERATION IN THIS COUNTRY. THROUGH A FOCUS ON ARIZONA, WHICH HAS LONG BEEN A TESTING GROUND FOR REPRESSIVE IMMIGRATION AND POLICING POLICIES AND IS CURRENTLY IN THE MIDST OF AN UNPRECEDENTED INCARCERATION CRISIS AFFECTING BLACK, LATINX AND NATIVE COMMUNITIES, ADVANCEMENT PROJECT NATIONAL OFFICE AND PUENTE HUMAN RIGHTS MOVEMENT SEEKS TO EXPOSE YET ANOTHER PIECE OF THIS SYSTEM. THE REPORT ALSO PROVIDES FIRST-HAND STORIES OF PEOPLE CURRENTLY DETAINED IN THE ELOY DETENTION CENTER IN ELOY, AZ, HELPING TO UNDERSCORE HOW IMMIGRATION DETENTIONWHICH IS TRULY IMPRISONMENT, NOT JUST DETENTIONAND, ULTIMATELY, DEHUMANIZES INDIVIDUALS AT EVERY LEVEL. STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS TO MAKE LASTING CHANGE, WE MUST ALSO CHANGE THE DOMINANT NARRATIVES REGARDING PUBLIC SAFETY. OUR STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS WORK LEVERAGES OUR NATIONAL MEDIA PROFILE, BROAD SOCIAL MEDIA REACH, CULTURE AND THE AMPLIFYING EFFECT OF THE GRASSROOTS ORGANIZATIONS WE PARTNER WITH. WE CONTINUED OUR WORK WITH REP. MARCIA FUDGE TO SUPPORT THE HOUSE ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE'S VOTING RIGHTS FIELD HEARINGS THAT WE BEGAN IN FEBRUARY 2019. IN NOVEMBER 2019, WE RELEASED A REPORT WE VOTE, WE COUNT: THE NEED FOR CONGRESSIONAL ACTION TO SECURE THE RIGHT TO VOTE FOR ALL CITIZENS THAT CATALOGUES AND HIGHLIGHTS STORIES WE COLLECTED FROM PEOPLE'S HEARINGS WE HELD DURING CONGRESSIONAL HEARINGS COLLECTING SIMILAR STORIES. THAT REPORT IS NOW A PART OF THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD. WE ALSO DEVELOPED A MICROSITE WHICH IS A NATIONAL HUB FOR ADVOCATES THAT PROVIDES NEWS AND UPDATES, VIDEO, AND CAMPAIGN TOOLS. THIS MICROSITE FEATURES A NEW #ASSAULTAT MAP THAT CHARTS THE COUNTLESS INCIDENTS OF STUDENTS BEING ASSAULTED BY SCHOOL POLICE IN THEIR PLACES OF LEARNING. THE #ASSAULTAT CAMPAIGN BEGAN IN RESPONSE TO THE RECORDED ASSAULT OF A YOUNG WOMAN OF COLOR IN SPRING VALLEY, SOUTH CAROLINA. WITH THE #ASSUALTATSPRINGVALLEY CAMPAIGN, STUDENT RECORDED VIDEOS OF POLICE VIOLENCE IN SCHOOLS WERE ABLE TO BE SHARED AND CIRCULATED QUICKLY THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA AND, THEN, LOCAL NEWS CHANNELS AND PAPERS. THIS ONLINE CAMPAIGN EXPOSED THE STATE VIOLENCE PERPETRATED BY POLICE THAT HAD ONCE BEEN CONCEALED. ON AUGUST 27, 2019, WE HELD A COMMUNITY EVENT TO LAUNCH OUR MICROSITE IN WASHINGTON, DC WHERE WE WALKED PEOPLE THROUGH THE REPORT, TIMELINE, AND IMMERSIVE DIGITAL EXPERIENCE.

	EDUCATIONAL EQUITYOUR EDUCATIONAL EQUITY PROGRAM PRODUCED THE SECOND ANNUAL BIRTH TO TWELFTH GRADE WATER COOLER CONFERENCE IN SACRAMENTO. THE TWO-DAY CONFERENCE BROUGHT TOGETHER MANY DEDICATED EARLY CHILDHOOD AND K-12 STAKEHOLDERS FROM ACROSS THE STATE. TOGETHER, WE WERE ABLE TO VET IDEAS FOR POLICY AND PRACTICE TO BUILD A SHARED EQUITY AGENDA THAT SUPPORTS ALL OF CALIFORNIA'S CHILDREN AND FAMILIES NOW AND INTO THE FUTURE. WE ALSO LAUNCHED OUR DRAFT POLICY PLATFORM FOR DUAL LANGUAGE LEARNERS (DLLS), DEVELOPED IN CONJUNCTION WITH EARLY EDGE CALIFORNIA. THE PLATFORM WILL BUILD ON THE GUBERNATORIAL ADMINISTRATION'S INTEREST IN EARLY LEARNING AND CARE TO BRING A FOCUS ON DUAL LANGUAGE LEARNERS AS A KEY COMPONENT OF BUILDING A HIGH-QUALITY SYSTEM IN CALIFORNIA.

	VOTER PROTECTIONTHE GOALS OF OUR VOTER PROTECTION PROGRAM INCLUDE DEFEATING FEDERAL AND LOCAL POLICIES THAT MAKE IT HARDER TO VOTE, HOLDING LOCAL AND STATE ELECTION OFFICIALS ACCOUNTABLE IN VA, AZ, GA, FL, AND OH, AND BUILDING-UP THE NEXT GENERATION VOTING RIGHTS MOVEMENT.IN MISSOURI, WE ACHIEVED A MAJOR VICTORY IN OUR LONGSTANDING VOTER ID CASE. IN PRIORITIES USA V. MISSOURI, THE MISSOURI SUPREME COURT UPHELD A LOWER COURT RULING AND PERMANENTLY STRUCK A PORTION OF MISSOURI'S VOTER ID LAW. AS A RESULT, ELECTION OFFICIALS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO REQUIRE A PHOTO ID TO VOTE OR REPRESENT IN ADVERTISING AND MATERIALS THAT A PHOTO ID IS REQUIRED TO VOTE. RIGHT TO VOTEIN OUR RIGHT TO VOTE PROGRAM, WE WORK TO EXPAND ELECTORATE THROUGH ELIMINATING CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS AS BARRIER TO VOTING AND RESTORING VOTING RIGHTS TO PEOPLE WITH FELONY CONVICTIONS IN FLORIDA, VIRGINIA, AND LOUISIANA AND INCREASE SUPPORT FOR A ROBUST DEMOCRACY, INCLUDING AN AFFIRMATIVE RIGHT TO VOTEIN MARCH 2019, WE HOSTED A CONVENING IN FLORIDA FOR ABOUT 40 ATTENDEES REPRESENTING OVER 20 ORGANIZATIONS TO DISCUSS THE NEWLY PASSED AMENDMENT AND HOW THE MOVEMENT CAN SUPPORT RIGHTS RESTORATION EFFORTS IN FLORIDA. AT THE CONVENING, WE DISCUSSED THE ACTUAL WORDING OF THE AMENDMENT AND KEY DEFINITIONS, AND WAYS TO TAKE THIS INTO THE COMMUNITY TO ENCOURAGE CIVIC PARTICIPATION AND ROBUST VOTER REGISTRATION EFFORTS. ONE CHALLENGE OF IMPLEMENTATION IS THAT MANY OF THE IMPACTED COMMUNITIES ARE PEOPLE WHO HAD NEVER EXERCISED THEIR RIGHT TO VOTE BEFORE AND THAT WE NEEDED TO INCLUDE POLITICAL EDUCATION TO INFORM THOSE NEWLY ELIGIBLE TO VOTE ON REGISTERING, POLLING PLACES, AND THEIR OVERALL RIGHTS IS IMPERATIVE.

	OPPORTUNITY TO LEARNOUR OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN PROGRAM ALSO TOOK MAJOR STEPS TOWARD CREATING SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTS FOR YOUTH OF COLOR AND ENDING CRIMINALIZATION BY SCHOOLS THIS YEAR. IN 2018 WE LAUNCHED A NATIONAL CAMPAIGN, WITH THE ALLIANCE FOR EDUCATIONAL JUSTICE AND SEVERAL GRASSROOTS GROUPS, TO REMOVE POLICE FROM SCHOOLS, WHILE CONTINUING OUR ORGANIZING AND STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS WORK WITH GRASSROOTS PARTNERS IN FLORIDA, DENVER, PHILADELPHIA, CHICAGO, PHOENIX AND OTHER COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY.WE WORKED WITH POWER U IN MIAMI ON THEIR FIGHT ON THE SCHOOL BUDGET DEMANDING A DECREASE IN FUNDING FOR SCHOOL POLICE AND HEAVY SECURITY MEASURES AND, INSTEAD, INCREASE FUNDING FOR STUDENT CENTRIC SUPPORTS INCLUDING COUNSELING, NURSES, AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES THAT ARE INTEGRAL TO THEIR SUCCESS. WITH THE SUPPORT OF OUR PARTNER, BEN & JERRY'S, WE SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENTED A PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN BY SPREADING OUR MESSAGE THROUGH THEIR CHANNELS AND NETWORKS AND RUNNING ADVERTISEMENT CAMPAIGNS WITH FREE ICE CREAM TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF POWER U'S WORK. IN JULY 2019, WE SUPPORTED THEM DURING A SCHOOL BOARD MEETING ON FUNDING FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR.ON DECEMBER 16, 2019, ADVANCEMENT PROJECT AND THE ALLIANCE FOR EDUCATIONAL JUSTICE HOSTED A NATIONAL POLICE-FREE SCHOOL CAMPAIGN CONVENING WITH OVER 40 ADULT AND YOUTH ORGANIZERS FROM 14 CITIES THROUGHOUT THE US AND CANADA ALL WORKING TO END THE SCHOOL-TO-PRISON PIPELINE AND REMOVE POLICE FROM SCHOOLS. WHILE ENVISIONING THE NEXT PHASE OF THE NATIONAL POLICE-FREE SCHOOLS CAMPAIGN, THE CONVENING PROVIDED A SPACE FOR ADVOCATES TO: ASSESS THE LAST TWO YEARS OF #POLICEFREESCHOOLS ORGANIZING AND IDENTIFY OPPORTUNITIES TO ADVANCE THE NATIONAL CAMPAIGN IN 2020 AND BEYOND; SHARPEN AND COORDINATE ORGANIZING AND COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES TO FURTHER ADVANCE LOCAL CAMPAIGNS WITH NATIONAL IMPACT; AND IDENTIFY AND DEEPEN OUR COLLECTIVE UNDERSTANDING AND RESPOND TO EMERGING ISSUES IN THE SCHOOL-TO-PRISON PIPELINE WORK.

	POLITICAL VOICE PROGRAMOUR POLITICAL VOICE PROGRAM, ALONGSIDE OUR CENSUS POLICY ADVOCACY NETWORK PARTNERS, WON HISTORIC STATE BUDGET ALLOCATIONS OF OVER $180 MILLION IN SUPPORT OF 2020 CENSUS OUTREACH. WE ALSO CREATED A SPACE FOR COLLABORATION AND LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT NOT JUST TO ENSURE A FAIR, ACCURATE 2020 CENSUS COUNT, BUT TO FORTIFY THE CONNECTIONS THAT MAKE POWER-BUILDING POSSIBLE. THE 2020 CENSUS WAS MORE THAN JUST A COUNT; IT PRESENTED AN OPPORTUNITY FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS TO HELP RESIDENTS LEAD POLICY CHANGE IN THEIR OWN NEIGHBORHOODS.EQUITY IN COMMUNITY INVESTMENTSWHEN OUR RESEARCH FOUND THAT AFFLUENT NEIGHBORHOODS WERE GETTING TWO TO THREE TIMES MORE FUNDING FOR PARKS PER CAPITA AS DISADVANTAGED ONES, OUR EQUITY IN COMMUNITY INVESTMENTS PROGRAM SUCCESSFULLY ADVOCATED WITH OUR PARTNERS AND OVER 300 LA COUNTY RESIDENTS FOR A $95 MILLION PER YEAR PARK FUNDING PLAN, WITH 30 PERCENT CARVED OUT FOR HIGH-NEED AREAS. THIS HISTORIC VICTORY WILL DELIVER CONCRETE BENEFITS FOR OUR COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, AND INCLUDES DISPLACEMENT PROTECTIONS SO RESIDENTS CAN STAY IN THEIR HOMES AND ENJOY THE NEW PARKS.WE JOINED A NEW COALITION, PUSH LA, AND DEMANDED THAT THE LOS ANGELES POLICE DEPARTMENT (LAPD) END ITS POLICY OF PULLING OVER AND SEARCHING BLACK AND BROWN DRIVERS AT SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER RATES THAN WHITE DRIVERS. PROMPTED IN PART BY OUR ADVOCACY, LAPD ANNOUNCED IN DECEMBER 2019 THAT ITS METRO DIVISION WOULD DRASTICALLY CUT BACK ON STOPPING RANDOM VEHICLES. THIS WAS A HUGE STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH FOR FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS TO ENSURE OFFICERS UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE HERE TO PROTECT AND SERVE US ALL.
