Women fleeing domestic violence, trafficking situations receive comprehensive, customized advocacy services. Child and family advocates offer after school and evening programming to children of all ages. In addition, AWUM employs community advocates who are dispersed throughout the metro area, meeting with women in safe spaces to provide many kinds of support, including accompaniment to court and on information on acquiring various resources. House of peace has in general supported over 100 women and children annually. Community advocates reach out to 500+ individuals annually. The ARP legal grant helped us with providing legal representation to women in court and hours of legal advocacy. AWUM contracted with 3 attorneys and a couple TBDs to take women's cases. We worked on OFP cases, DANCO cases, immigration issues, Custody issues, Parenting time issues. This was huge since one of the most stressful things for women is when they don't have an attorney to represent them in court.After our legal advocate at DASC resigned in March we were actively looking for a good fit for the position and we finally filled the position in August 25. The Children's Group at the shelter is a vibrant and supportive community where young residents can engage in a variety of enriching activities. Each day, children participate in a mix of educational and recreational programs designed to promote learning, creativity, and social skills. Activities range from arts and crafts, storytelling, puzzle solving mini-games, and to outdoor play, and sports. Special events, such as themed parties and movie nights are also organized to create joyful memories and a sense of normalcy. The dedicated staff and volunteers work efficiently to ensure that every child feels safe, valued, and cared for, fostering a nurturing environment where they can thrive despite the challenges they face. The Metropolitan Regional Arts Council approved a Fiscal Year 2024 Flexible Support grant of $25,000.00 to our organization on April 23, 2024. AWUM brought in a teaching artist through COMPAS to do a project Ordinary to Extraordinary" that goes through the summer of 2025. The teaching artist has brought in a tapestry of various art projects and themes and will continue doing so during the period of the grant at the shelter a combination of various folk arts from India -sand art, mural's Mandala designs, rangoli and block printing and nature. 1245427 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 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 15 0 1 25 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 3 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 MN X X X Sipra Jha 6127240756 PO Box 6223 Minneapolis MN 55406 Hao Nguyen Board Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Sophia Vuelo Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 William Vang Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sipra Jha Executive Director 40.00 X 84242 0 21419 84242 0 21419 0 0 0 0 MACC 3433 Broadway Street NE Suite 230 Minneapolis MN 55413 Accounting services 127612 1 1002799 148680 2426 1151479 Insurance proceeds 900099 12200 12200 12200 217 217 1163896 12200 0 217 X 109458 105755 3703 572495 549337 23158 23819 23819 90826 90826 57013 57013 1550 112 1438 5625 5625 148612 127612 21000 155054 149540 5514 12591 2411 44 10136 13970 13970 65657 65627 30 9037 9008 29 9469 9469 Participant food, suppl 32057 32057 Membership dues 1990 1990 Staff and volunteer tra 1532 1256 276 Miscellaneous expenses 636 636 1311391 1245427 55799 10165 573113 467330 107046 107263 100000 178 241341 242650 33940 39100 314415 244818 15099 69597 1070539 926118 109369 112443 109369 112443 X 686170 679925 275000 133750 961170 813675 1070539 926118 -147495 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 1261544 1461419 1352033 1391092 1229479 6695567 1261544 1461419 1352033 1391092 1229479 6695567 637160 6058407 12 10 63 154 217 456 6696023 17194 0.90480 0.91910 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 2135 1494 641 226670 185181 41489 58143 58143 0 27467 27467 69597 1241896 78000 78000 1163896 0 1163896 1389391 78000 78000 1311391 0 1311391 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b After the 990 is compiled a draft copy is submitted to all board members for review and approval.
