Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. GAAP clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. GAAP also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement and classification of amounts relating to uncertain tax positions, accounting for and disclosure of interest and penalties, and disclosures. The Organization has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Organization, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Organization recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in operating expenses. There were no interest and penalties recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. false false false false false false false false false DAVID CARROLL EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 159655 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 159655 0 0 0 FORM 990, PART I, Line 1 THE SIXTH AMENDMENT CENTER SEEKS TO ENSURE THAT NO PERSON FACES POTENTIAL TIME IN JAIL OR PRISON WITHOUT FIRST HAVING THE AID OF A LAWYER WITH THE TIME, ABILITY AND RESOURCES TO PRESENT AN EFFECTIVE DEFENSE, AS REQUIRED UNDER THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION.
