For nearly 50 years, we have engaged in direct advocacy and education to support First Amendment principles. NCAC is unique in that we are national in scope but often local in our approach. We work with community organizations and members to resolve censorship controversies without litigation.NCAC sponsors the Free Expression Network (FEN), a group of more than 50 organizations that work on free expression issues. During Zoom meetings that occur every other month, FEN members share information and strategy about new issues. The FEN listserv facilitates efforts to collaborate on advocacy letters, joint statements and amicus briefs.Every year NCAC receives hundreds of requests for assistance from teachers, librarians, artists, the media, researchers, students, and others. It provides a wealth of resources through its website as well as private counseling. NCAC is committed to providing all concerned citizens with the tools they need to defend their rights. 380511 The Youth Free Expression Program (YFEP) is dedicated to the education of young people, helping them assert and defend their right to free expression. Any attempt to restrict the creative and intellectual freedom of young people is harmful. The program works with students, teachers, parents, school administrators, and community members to oppose removal of books from school libraries and classrooms, censorship of student-created visual art, efforts to silence student journalists, cancellation of student-led plays and musicals, restrictions on student speech on social media, and efforts to censor health, history, and science curricula. 245492 The Arts and Culture Advocacy Program (ACAP) helps artists and curators involved in censorship disputes. Our goal is to resolve controversies and develop strategic educational initiatives that equip artists and institutions with the necessary tools to promote artistic freedom. NCAC is the only free speech organization with a program dedicated to the rights of artists. 1227456 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 15 0 1 9 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 X 16 16 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X THE ORGANIZATION 2128076222 19 FULTON STREET NEW YORK NY 10038 Jon Anderson Chairman 1.00 X 0 0 0 Barbara Marcus Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Randall L Kennedy Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Gina Maria Leonetti Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Oren Teicher Treasurer 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mitchell Kaplan Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Emily JM Knox PhD Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHRISTOPHER FINAN EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X X 135538 0 0 Lee Rowland EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X X 60539 0 0 Amy Berkower Weiss Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jonathan Bloom Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Eric Freedman Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Judy Gold Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ambika Kumar Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tony Lyons Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sheryl Oring Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 196077 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1914325 1914325 RELATED REVENUE 459210 1910 1910 1910 32229 32229 336400 128526 207874 207874 2156338 34139 0 207874 X 196077 174509 3921 17647 707292 629490 14146 63656 24542 17283 2582 4677 40912 28810 4305 7797 76682 44888 16330 15464 8300 8300 172981 126382 46005 594 6748 2295 4348 105 7246 5565 890 791 39819 32187 7632 141991 109333 16329 16329 18102 6536 8133 3433 676 554 61 61 8061 3883 3746 432 State Registration Fees 17183 17183 PAYROLL FEES 13406 5942 3431 4033 PRINTING AND PUBLICATIO 12759 8949 3810 Telephone 7207 6270 216 721 10176 7397 1476 1303 1510160 1227456 134219 148485 405272 744553 630417 767846 15600 21591 7411 4596 3366 1645 1298 1721 49578 154396 307043 173482 1416619 1868185 24559 31152 75000 289984 155733 389543 186885 X 1004882 1642365 22194 38935 1027076 1681300 1416619 1868185 646178 8046 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 822467 1036110 958070 863312 837872 4517831 822467 1036110 958070 863312 837872 4517831 4517831 3574 1872 1365 17811 24622 42840 18598 13715 14062 14418 103633 4646086 928996 0.97240 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 3366 1645 1721 1721 SECURITY DEPOSIT - RENT 22699 RIGHT OF USE ASSET 150783 173482 LEASE LIABILITY 155733 155733 2156338 0 2156338 0 2156338 0 0 0 0 0 X X X X 2156338 2156338 2156338 2156338 2156338 X X X X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Part I, Line 3 THE ORGANIZATION CONDUCTED A STUDY OF SIMILAR SIZE ORGANIZATIONS IN THE SAME GEOGRAPHIC AREA TO C0MPARE COMPETITIVE SALARIES.
