Despite these barriers, program youth enter adulthood with strong foundations for continuing achievement: 83% graduate high school or earn a GED, 93% avoid juvenile justice system involvement, and 98% avoid teen parenting. 596442 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X The Organization 7196496438 105 Coleridge Avenue Colorado Springs CO 80909 Debra Wynn Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Noreen Landis-Tyson Vice Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Cory Tweden Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Nancy Tollefson Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Ed Gleason Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Emilia Cruz Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lynn Stone Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mike Edmonds Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Terri Sorensen Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Judith Cara Executive Director 40.00 X 125732 0 8341 125732 0 8341 1 0 0 0 0 549349 12825 549349 35 35 12422 3340 9082 9082 Other income 900099 330 330 330 558796 330 0 9117 128339 115362 9606 3371 336632 302595 25196 8841 10189 9158 763 268 43703 39284 3271 1148 41591 37386 3113 1092 25820 25820 36762 6615 30147 17573 12164 4478 931 16602 13688 1854 1060 8704 8167 376 161 7750 2236 5258 256 26840 20856 3679 2305 6890 6201 482 207 Youth activites 13862 13862 Friend activites and tr 12929 12929 Hiring and staff develo 5509 456 5042 11 Family support and enga 2181 2098 58 25 1364 1364 743240 596442 95611 51187 811112 560848 153565 314342 267456 3527 8492 1128981 990361 21003 54582 7215 0 5030 21003 66827 X 150636 406078 957342 517456 1107978 923534 1128981 990361 -184444 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 550000 1240488 549349 2339837 550000 1240488 549349 2339837 2339837 35 35 677 12752 13429 2353301 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 5030 5030 1 X 0 X 559539 743 743 558796 0 558796 743983 743 743 743240 0 743240 Part IV, Line 2b: The Organization holds monies for the benefit of youth children in their program, which are held in separate bank accounts.
