| Form 990, Part III, Line 4a | The Crime Stoppers of Houston (CSOH) Safe School Institute (SSI) met and exceeded many goals in 2022. During the year, the Safe School team reached 82,571 students, 7,313 educators/school law enforcement officers, and in conjunction with the Safe Community Institute, reached 10,804 parents over a total of 857 presentations. We created a new presentation on Vaping Prevention for teens, hosted the first Counselor Lunch and Learn where we presented prevention programming material to over 60 local counselors and school psychologists, launched a student Ambassador Program, and created post-presentation lesson plans for teachers and counselors to use as reinforcement tools in the classroom. Our partnership with the Texas Education Agency (TEA) has proven to be extremely helpful in building partnerships and relationships with school safety personnel across Texas. Program leads continue to attend monthly meetings on Human Trafficking and Educator Resources. CSOH and SSI have continued to host virtual quarterly statewide trainings. The SAVE webinar series is offered every Monday through the CSOH website to educate and provide resources on school safety topics. In 2022, the SAVE webinar series offered 38 webinars and reached 677 people. At the end of 2022, the SSI reached 16 of the 20 Education Service Centers in the state via online webinars, trainings, and presentations. |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4b | The Safe Community Institute met and exceeded many goals in 2022. Throughout the year, the program, which includes Victim Services, reached 143,956 community members (Jan-Sept) through prevention education and reached a projected 275,087 community members (Jan-Sept) through community outreach events. We also created our first-ever College Safety Planner which provides college students with vital safety tips, resources, and reporting tools most applicable to their stage of life. We also expanded our volunteer program significantly to be able to better serve all communities across the Greater Houston Area. A primary objective and goal of the Victim Services & Advocacy program were to track and report on the number of victims who lost their lives to repeat violent felony defendants. With that, we have since compiled a list of 183+ such victims. We directly served 913 victims (Jan-Sept) in 2022 with crisis services, legal advocacy, parole board hearings, support group meetings, and events. Additionally, we had the opportunity to submit our first-ever Victim Impact Statement Videos to the Texas Board of Parole to be used in actual parole hearings this year. Finally, our team presented three times at the National Association of Victim Assistance Annual Conference in Denver this year! |
| Form 990, Part III, Line 4c | CSOH operates 713-222-TIPS, a telephone tip line. Information about criminal activity is received and transferred to law enforcement for immediate action. Callers are promised anonymity and cash rewards of up to $5,000 in exchange for their accurate crime tips. Our organization provides a safe forum for citizens to report crimes in their neighborhoods and schools without the fear of retaliation. We are the eyes and ears of law enforcement in the community. In 2022, the Tip Line received 9,795 tips which assisted law enforcement in solving 383 cases ranging from Capital Murder to Fugitive Warrants that led to 202 suspects being charged and/or arrested. These tips resulted in 21 weapons and $78,882 in illegal drugs seized plus $1,111,558 in stolen property/cash recovered. The approved reward payout to 191 men, women, and students totaled $233,900. CSOH received $71,777 of restricted cash from court fines to help pay tipster rewards and three area law enforcement agencies donated services valued at $1,597,221 to process and investigate the anonymous tips. |
