| FORM 990 PART III LINE 4A | Orange County United Way is committed to ensuring local students succeed, OC families gain financial security, our neighbors experiencing homelessness find a place to call home, and everyone gets connected to the assistance they need. We serve hundreds of thousands of our residents by delivering crucial programs and services directly to our communities. Our unique approach comes from an understanding that Orange County's most critical issues are inter-related, and we must tackle them in an interconnected way to provide long-term solutions that break the cycle. This informs the work we focus on in our three key initiatives: United for Student Success, aims to ensure local students receive the support they need to stay on track in school and graduate on time ready for college, career, and life.

Mentoring from leading professionals and a robust virtual workshop series teach students essential life and career skills to position them for future success.

The goal is to activate immediate and long-term housing-first solutions across our community through collaboration with the county's top business, philanthropic, governmental, faith-based, and non-profit leaders. Programs: . WelcomeHomeOC is our housing navigation and landlord incentive program, which helps individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness and holding a rental assistance voucher to secure housing in private market apartments and ensures supportive services are provided so they can remain housed for the long-term. Since the program's inception in 2019, we have helped house more than 1,000 people experiencing homelessness. .

UpSkill OC, our workforce development program, is an innovative, collaborative approach to bridging the skills gap in various industries and creating pathways to jobs that pay a living wage. We also continued our pandemic recovery efforts with Emergency Rental Assistance.
