Return Reference	Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A:	1. PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT GOAL: TO DEVELOP AND CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE AND AFFIRMING PROGRAMS THAT EXTEND HUMAN SKILLS DEVELOPMENT INTO MULTIPLE SETTINGS. IN 2024, WE SIGNIFICANTLY ADVANCED OUR COMMITMENT TO CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE AND AFFIRMING PROGRAMMING THROUGH MAJOR UPDATES TO OUR SECOND STEP DIGITAL PROGRAMS ACROSS ALL GRADE LEVELS, INCLUDING THE LAUNCH OF A FULLY REIMAGINED SECOND STEP HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM. KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDED: - LAUNCH OF SECOND STEP HIGH SCHOOL: DESIGNED TO MEET THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF ADOLESCENTS, THIS PROGRAM USES A WHOLE-SCHOOL MODEL WITH THEMATIC PATHWAYS AND COLLABORATIVE PRACTICES THAT ENGAGE STUDENTS, EDUCATORS, AND FAMILIES. - NEW MIDDLE SCHOOL UNIT ON IDENTITY AND AGENCY ACROSS THREE GRADE LEVELS: DEVELOPING A POSITIVE SENSE OF SELF HELPS STUDENTS EXPLORE SELF-CONCEPT, CONFIDENCE, AND PERSONAL AGENCY. - ENHANCED CULTURAL RESPONSIVENESS: UPDATED MEDIA AND LESSON CONTENT ACROSS K-12 PROGRAMS REFLECT GREATER DIVERSITY AND INCLUSIVITY, IMPROVING REPRESENTATION AND RELEVANCE. - EXPANDED FAMILY ENGAGEMENT: NEW MULTILINGUAL RESOURCES AND ACCESS PORTALS SUPPORT SEL LEARNING AT HOME. - INCREASED STUDENT VOICE AND CHOICE: LESSONS NOW INCLUDE MORE OPEN-ENDED QUESTIONS, PEER COLLABORATION, AND REAL STUDENT PERSPECTIVES TO FOSTER DEEPER ENGAGEMENT. THESE DEVELOPMENTS ENSURE THAT OUR SEL PROGRAMS ARE NOT ONLY EVIDENCE-BASED BUT ALSO AFFIRM STUDENTS' IDENTITIES AND EXTEND LEARNING INTO CLASSROOMS, HOMES, AND COMMUNITIES ACROSS ALL GRADE LEVELS. 2. PROGRAM IMPACT GOAL: TO INCREASE OUR PROGRAM'S IMPACT BY APPLYING MULTIPLE STRATEGIES AND IN CONSULTATION WITH EXTERNAL EXPERTS ALONG WITH OUR INTERNAL RESEARCH TEAM. IN 2024, WE EXPANDED OUR PROGRAM'S REACH AND EFFECTIVENESS THROUGH A MULTIFACETED STRATEGY THAT COMBINED INTERNAL RESEARCH, EXTERNAL CONSULTATION, AND STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS. A MAJOR HIGHLIGHT OF THIS EFFORT WAS THE LAUNCH OF THE NEWLY DESIGNED SECOND STEP HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM, WHICH COMPLETES OUR K-12 SEL CONTINUUM AND INTRODUCES A WHOLE-SCHOOL ENGAGEMENT MODEL TAILORED TO ADOLESCENT DEVELOPMENT. ADDITIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS: - EXPANDED EDUCATOR AND STUDENT RESOURCES: NEW TOOLS INCLUDE A PROGRAM MODEL VIDEO, KICK-OFF POWERPOINT, AND ALIGNMENT CHARTS FOR COLLEGE AND WORKFORCE READINESS AND ASCA STANDARDS. - FAMILY AND STUDENT ENGAGEMENT: NEW FAMILY ACCESS FEATURES AND STUDENT EXTENSION ACTIVITIES (E.G., DEBATES, DISCUSSIONS, CREATIVE COLLABORATION) SUPPORT LEARNING BEYOND THE CLASSROOM. - ANNUAL PROGRAM RESET AND UPDATE: ENSURES EDUCATORS BEGIN EACH YEAR WITH REFRESHED DASHBOARDS AND THE LATEST CONTENT. - ENHANCED DATA TOOLS: LAUNCH VIEW AND MONITOR VIEW DASHBOARDS, ALONG WITH EXPORTABLE IMPLEMENTATION DATA, PROVIDE ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS FOR SCHOOL LEADERS. - ALIGNMENT WITH NATIONAL FRAMEWORKS: CONTINUED ALIGNMENT WITH CASEL, ASCA, AND RESTORATIVE PRACTICES ENSURES OUR PROGRAMS REMAIN EVIDENCE-BASED AND RELEVANT. THESE STRATEGIES AND PARTNERSHIPS ENSURE OUR PROGRAMS ARE NOT ONLY GROUNDED IN RESEARCH BUT ALSO RESPONSIVE TO THE EVOLVING NEEDS OF EDUCATORS AND STUDENTS. BY INTEGRATING ASSESSMENT, IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT, AND WHOLE-SCHOOL ENGAGEMENT, WE ARE MAXIMIZING THE POSITIVE IMPACT OF HUMAN SKILLS DEVELOPMENT ACROSS DIVERSE EDUCATIONAL SETTINGS. 3. PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPMENT GOAL: TO BUILD PARTNERSHIPS TO EXPAND CFC'S REACH AND IMPACT. COMMITTEE FOR CHILDREN DEVELOPED SEVERAL PARTNERSHIPS THIS YEAR TO EXPAND OUR REACH AND IMPACT. - WE WORKED WITH OXFORD TO BRING TOGETHER SCHOLARS FOCUSING ON GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND YOUTH WELLBEING TO EXPLORE HOW THE TWO DOMAINS INTERRELATE. - WE COLLABORATED WITH RIVERSIDE TO ALIGN ITEMS FROM THE DESSA (DEVEREUX STUDENT STRENGTHS ASSESSMENT) WITH OUR CURRICULUM. THIS ALIGNMENT ENABLES EDUCATORS TO EVALUATE STUDENTS' SEL COMPETENCIES WITH GREATER PRECISION AND TO USE ASSESSMENT DATA TO GUIDE INSTRUCTIONAL DECISIONS AND SUPPORT. THIS PARTNERSHIP HAS ALLOWED CFC TO IMPROVE REACH AND IMPACT BY INCREASING OUR OPPORTUNITY TO MEET THE NEEDS OF SCHOOLS. WE PARTNERED WITH THE EDUCATIONAL RECORDS BUREAU, WHICH HELPS PROVIDE PRIVATE SCHOOLS WITH EDUCATION MATERIALS. THIS PARTNERSHIP HAS INCREASED OUR REACH INTO THE PRIVATE SCHOOL SETTING. - WE PARTNERED WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO CUSTOMIZE MISSION-ALIGNED SOLUTIONS THAT ARE TAILORED TO BEST SERVE THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF THEIR COMMUNITIES.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B:	1. TRAINING AND IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT GOAL: TO PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY, EFFICIENT, AND ACCESSIBLE IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORTS TO ENSURE THE SUCCESSFUL REACH AND IMPACT OF OUR PROGRAMS. WE IMPROVED OUR IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORTS BY IMPLEMENTING THE FOLLOWING NEW STRATEGIES AND TOOLS: - DEVELOPED NEW IMPLEMENTATION VIDEOS, WEBINARS, MESSAGING, CHECK-IN SCHEDULE, AND RESOURCES. - DEVELOPED SIX NEW TRAINING WORKSHOPS TO IMPROVE PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION - DEVELOPED NEW WHOLE-SCHOOL IMPLEMENTATION TOOLS: LEADERS AND EDUCATORS GAINED ACCESS TO NEW PLANNING SUPPORTS, PACING TOOLS, AND DASHBOARDS FOR TRACKING PROGRESS AND FIDELITY. 2.
