| General Statement Regarding the Covid-19 Pandemic | The COVID-19 pandemic, whose effects first became known in January 2020, is having a broad and negative impact on commerce and financial markets around the world. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Agencys operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and its long-term impact on the Agencys donors, employees and vendors, all of which at present, cannot be determined. Accordingly, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Agencys financial position and changes in net assets and cash flows is uncertain, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements include no adjustments relating to the effects of this pandemic. FORM 990, Part III, Line 1 CONTINUATION OF ORGANIZATION'S MISSION: WE BELIEVE ALL children HAVE LIMITLESS POTENTIAL. BUT FOR THOSE GROWING UP SURROUNDED BY POVERTY, FAMILY INSTABILITY, AND PHYSICAL OR EMOTIONAL STRESS, LIFE IS TOO OFTEN ABOUT SURVIVAL, NOT POSSIBILITY. IT'S UNACCEPTABLE THAT IN NEW YORK, A CITY OF HISTORIC OPPORTUNITY, SO MANY OF OUR CHILDREN FACE SERIOUS BARRIERS TO REALIZING THEIR OWN PROMISE. CHILDREN'S AID IS A PROFESSIONAL POWERHOUSE OF SOLUTIONS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE. WE ARE TEACHERS AND SOCIAL WORKERS, COACHES AND HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS. WE KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO ENSURE CHILDREN GROW UP STRONG AND HEALTHY, AND READY TO THRIVE IN SCHOOL AND LIFE: EXCELLENT EDUCATION AND HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, AND STRONG, STABLE FAMILIES. |

THE OFFICE OF CLIENT ADVOCACY HELPS STABILIZE LOW-INCOME FAMILIES THROUGH LEGAL ADVOCACY, EMERGENCY MATERIAL ASSISTANCE, AND THROUGH COLLEGE SAVERS WHICH ESTABLISHES SAVINGS ACCOUNTS AND PROVIDES INCENTIVES TOWARDS SAVING FOR COLLEGE. THE NEXT GENERATION CENTER SUPPORTS TEENS AND YOUNG ADULTS, PARTICULARLY THOSE AGING OUT OF FOSTER CARE, IN THEIR TRANSITION TO ADULTHOOD. CWFS HAS MAINTAINED THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OUR CHILDREN DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC WHILE TRANSITIONING OUR STAFF TO WORKING REMOTELY. OUR STAFF CONTINUED WORKING THROUGHOUT THE PANDEMIC, ACCEPTING NEW CASES INCLUDING OVER 100 NEW FOSTER CHILDREN BETWEEN MARCH AND JUNE OF 2020. WE ASSISTED OUR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES TO MEET THEIR BASIC NEEDS AND RESPONDED TO CASE EMERGENCIES. ADDITIONALLY, WE OPERATIONALIZED SIX NEW PREVENTIVE CONTRACTS FROM THE RECENT N.Y.C. ADMINISTRATION FOR CHILDRENS SERVICES REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS PROCESS, INCLUDING IMPLEMENTING TWO NEW EVIDENCED-BASED MODELS. THE DIVISION SERVED OVER 6,000 CHILDREN AND FAMILIES LAST YEAR. |
| LINE 4B | YOUTH (CONTINUED) CORE SERVICES INCLUDE OUT-OF-SCHOOL TIME PROGRAMS IN CHILDRENS AID COMMUNITY CENTERS AND SCHOOLS, SUMMER CAMPS, ATHLETIC PROGRAMMING, AND THROUGH THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR COMMUNITY SCHOOLS, WHICH PROVIDES TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO DEVELOP THE COMMUNITY SCHOOL MODEL NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY. FOR THE 2018-2019 SCHOOL YEAR, 91% OF YOUTH IN OUR ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL PROGRAMS ENDED THE YEAR WITH TYPICAL OR STRONG SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SKILLS. IN ADDITION, BETWEEN THE 2018-2019 AND 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEARS, THE PERCENTAGE OF NINTH GRADE STUDENTS ON TRACK TO GRADUATE BASED ON CREDITS INCREASED BY 9, 10, AND 5 PERCENTAGE POINTS, RESPECTIVELY, AT PROGRAMS IN EACH OF OUR THREE HIGH SCHOOLS. OUR OLDER YOUTH SERVICES INCLUDE THE CARRERA-ADOLESCENT PREGNANCY PREVENTION PROGRAM, WHICH MEETS THE TOP-TIER EVIDENCE OF EFFECTIVENESS STANDARDS BY THE COALITION FOR EVIDENCE-BASED POLICY. SERVICES ALSO INCLUDE THE EXCEL COLLEGE SUPPORT PROGRAM PROVIDING ASSISTANCE TO HELP YOUNG PEOPLE ENTER AND COMPLETE COLLEGE, THE HOPE LEADERSHIP ACADEMY, WHICH PROVIDES WRAP-AROUND SUPPORTS AND DEVELOPS LEADERSHIP THROUGH A PEER EDUCATION MODEL, AND TEEN EMPLOYMENT SERVICES, SUCH AS SUMMER YOUTH EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM AND CORPORATE INTERNSHIPS. WE SUPPORT YOUTH THROUGH PROGRAMS AT EIGHTEEN COMMUNITY SCHOOLS, FIVE COMMUNITY CENTERS, OUR WAGON ROAD RESPITE CAMP IN CHAPPAQUA, NEW YORK AND A RANGE OF COLLEGE AND CAREER SERVICES FOR YOUTH AGED 18 TO 22. THE YOUTH DIVISION ALSO PROVIDES MANAGEMENT AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT TO THE CHILDRENS AID COLLEGE PREP CHARTER SCHOOL, A K-8 CHARTER SCHOOL. THE YOUTH DIVISION SERVED OVER 10,000 PARTICIPANTS IN FISCAL YEAR 2020. LINE 4C HEALTH AND WELLNESS (CONTINUED) WHEN MEDICAL CARE IS CONVENIENT AND ACCESSIBLE, MORE CHILDREN LIVE HEALTHIER LIVES. CHILDRENS AID PROVIDES MEDICAL, REPRODUCTIVE, MENTAL HEALTH, DENTAL, AND HEALTH EDUCATION SERVICES IN SIX SCHOOL-BASED AND TWO COMMUNITY-BASED HEALTH CENTERS. HEALTH SERVICES ARE TAILORED TO MEET THE SPECIAL NEEDS OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS, AND THE DIVISION SPECIALIZES IN PROVIDING HEALTH CARE TO CHILDREN IN FOSTER CARE. AN EXAMPLE OF THE DIVISIONS SPECIFIC IMPACT IS THAT FOR THE PATIENTS SEEN OVER AGE 5 WITH PERSISTENT ASTHMA, OVER 86% WERE PRESCRIBED A CONTROLLER MEDICATION TO KEEP THEIR ASTHMA STABLE. DURING THE WINTER QUARTER, JANUARY TO MARCH 2020, WE SAW 498 CHILDREN WHO HAVE AN ASTHMA DIAGNOSIS; 151 OR 30% HAVE PERSISTENT ASTHMA. |
| LINE 4D | EARLY CHILDHOOD THE EARLY CHILDHOOD DIVISION PREPARES YOUNG CHILDREN (AGES 0 TO 5) FOR SCHOOL SUCCESS BY WORKING WITH FAMILIES TO ADVANCE CHILDREN'S PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, AND COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT AND TO INSTILL IN THEM A LIFELONG LOVE OF LEARNING. SOME OF THE PROGRAMMING INCLUDES HEAD-START PROGRAMS, PRE-K AND 3-K OFFERINGS. CORE SERVICES INCLUDE HOME-BASED AND CENTER-BASED PROGRAMS THAT FEATURE RESEARCH-BASED CURRICULA, LOW CHILD-TO-TEACHER RATIOS, AND STRONG PARENT ENGAGEMENT. IN A RECENT LONGITUDINAL STUDY, WE FOUND THAT, ON AVERAGE, CHILDREN WHO HAD BEEN IN CHILDREN'S AID EARLY CHILDHOOD PROGRAMS AT P.S. 5 AND P.S. 8 OUTSCORED THEIR NON-CHILDRENS AID PEERS ON THE CITYWIDE EXAMS 97% OF THE TIME. OUR EARLY CHILDHOOD DIVISION HAS TEN EARLY CHILDHOOD SITES SERVING ABOUT 1,000 CHILDREN. Collective Impact & the National Center for Community Schools THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR COMMUNITY SCHOOLS OFFERS TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE IN ALL ASPECTS OF DESIGNING, IMPLEMENTING, AND SUSTAINING COMMUNITY SCHOOLS TO MEET THE UNIQUE NEEDS AND STRENGTHS OF INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITIES. SERVICES ARE TARGETED TO INDIVIDUAL SCHOOLS, SCHOOL BOARD AND DISTRICT ADMINISTRATORS, FUNDERS, EDUCATION REFORM LEADERS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, AND OTHERS THROUGH FACILITATED PLANNING, CONSULTATION, WORKSHOPS AND ONGOING SUPPORT. SINCE 1994, THE NATIONAL CENTER HAS PROVIDED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO NEARLY ALL MAJOR NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY SCHOOL INITIATIVES. VIA CUSTOMIZED TRAINING, CONSULTATION, FACILITATION, PUBLICATIONS, AND ADVOCACY, WE HELP BUILD THE CAPACITY OF SCHOOLS, DISTRICTS, COMMUNITY PARTNERS, AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO ORGANIZE THEIR HUMAN AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES AROUND STUDENT SUCCESS. THROUGH A NEWLY FORMED PARTNERSHIP WITH THE BILL AND MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION, CHILDRENS AID HAS LAUNCHED A NEW PROGRAM CALLED "RECOVERY LAB", AN INITIATIVE TO ADDRESS THE ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING NEEDS OF NEW YORK CITYS MOST VULNERABLE YOUNG PEOPLE AS THEY TRANSITION FROM SUMMER TO THE SCHOOL YEAR IN THE COVID-19 ERA.
