To be the emotional driving force for changes in the 9-1-1 system in order to minimize human error. false false 877464 The Denise Amber Lee Foundation was borne out of a tragic breakdown of the 9-1-1 system in which a young wife and mother of two needlessly lost her life. the daylong abduction, rape and murder of Denise Lee exposed numerous inefficiencies in a system that all citizens rely on in their time of need. In an age of consumer technology that allows us to track and pinpoint locations with GPS on our phones, five calls to 9-1-1 that day, including a six (6) minute call from Denise herself, resulted in no location information to send a response. It is as if this reality of 9-1-1 not being able to pinpoint a location is a secret that the 9-1-1 industry doesnt want to publicize. The Denise Amber Lee Foundation is chartered with raising public awareness of this issue as well as the fact that in most locations and states around the country training is not required to be a 9-1-1 call taker or dispatcher; that the majority of 9-1-1 centers have no quality assurance practices in place for ongoing monitoring of call handeling and customer service. Most states require dog groomers to be trained and pass state exams for certification but the person taking a screaming mothers call for help needs no certification nor training. The Denise Amber Lee Foundation has recruited like-minded, passionate trainers from the 9-1-1 community to reach out to our nations 9-1-1 centers and perform full day presentations on the details of our tragedy and inspire them to not make these same mistakes. These sessions are having a powerful impact on those that attend. We are constantly receiving critiques and testimonials from attendees like this; Thank you for putting on the most profound class I have ever attended. It really motivated us to improve our training program. Thank you again for all the work you are doing to help our industry improve, Thank you for reminding me how important my job can be and how complacency can cost lives, your talk was truly inspirational. I will carry it with me for the rest of my life, and in turn hopefully ensure that I am never guilty of this. Your journey with and without Denise is an incredible one. God Bless and, This class should be required training for every dispatcher! What an eye opener and very informative! the Denise Amber Lee Foundation is also initiating a Quality Assurance/Quality Improvement Consulting Service to help public safety agencies install quality assurance practices in their day to day operations to reduce the indicence of human error. Oddly, the 9-1-1 industry is one of the last in this country to embrace quality assurance principals and it is arguable the most important life-saving industry. An Internal Affairs Investigation is NOT a quality assurance program. With the support of the donor community, we will continue to tell our painful story that is having a major impact on how 9-1-1 calls are handeled nationwide. 9-1-1 is a universal number for help that demands a universal level of response no matter where you are having an emergency. 877464 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 39 0 true 5 true false false false false false false false false false false false X 13 10 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X X Mark Lee 9418302035 201 North Drive Englewood FL 34223 Nathan Lee President 40.00 0.00 X X X 125334 0 0 Mark Lee Vice President 40.00 0.00 X X 77121 0 0 Ronald Bonneau Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sherrill Ornberg Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Eric Parry Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Souder Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kevin Haight Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Martin Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ward Hayworth Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mark Fletcher Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robin Littau Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Dignam Secretary 0.50 0.00 X X 0 0 0 202455 0 0 1 false false false See Schedule 42 Continued P O Box 781 Englewood FL 34295 Speaking Engagemen 189935 1 8406 259538 267944 Training Class Presenta 900099 426936 426936 Speaker Fees 900099 Consulting 900099 7620 7620 Quality ASSUR Evaluatio 900099 221812 221812 ONLine Training Regis 900099 46989 46989 40373 40373 743730 3 3 8406 0 Miscellaneous Revenue 900099 558 558 Paypal Sales 900099 120 120 Shopify sales 900099 12934 12934 13612 1025289 757345 0 0 202455 125334 77121 105794 105794 38922 38922 23581 17686 5895 1288 1288 18542 18542 59464 59464 840 840 195731 195731 45517 45517 8816 8816 Speaker Fee Expense 67842 67842 QA Evaluations Consultants 149996 149996 Eventbrite & Paypal Fees 12895 12895 BTD Expenses 146565 146565 1078248 877464 182242 18542 180530 102996 8189 17191 21379 29490 15888 40354 1814 250452 167379 876 11976 115300 63949 174875 185440 4087 3659 295138 265024 X -44686 -97645 -44686 -97645 250452 167379 -52959 0 X true X false false false X 62231 84676 68069 133968 267944 616888 428068 377700 506914 785641 757342 2855665 490299 462376 574983 919609 1025286 3472553 0 0 0 0 0 0 3472553 5 1 3 9 5 1 3 9 490299 462376 574988 919610 1025289 3472562 1.00000 1.00000 0.00000 0.00000 X SunTrust Credit Card Rounding Payroll payables Deferred Revenue 2818 401k Payable 841 Scholarship Payable 3659 David Dignam Secretary and Treasu Fund needed activity X 40000 false true true Amended return information RETURN AMENDED DUE TO REVERSING ENTRY FOR ACCRUED REVEUNE AND EXPENSES FROM 2022 THAT SHOULD HAVE IMPACTED 2023 WAS RECORDED IN 2024.
