We focus on equitable use and ownership of land to increase, protect, and preserve affordable housing and tenant protections for lower income Californians. We specialize in affordable and fair housing; land use, inclusive development and redevelopment, relocation assistance, preservation of subsidized housing, and landlord-tenant laws. In 2024, we advanced justice across California by winning enforceable commitments in Clovis to rezone for 1,300 affordable homes, launch a $1.8 million Housing Trust Fund, and adopt the Central Valley's first inlcusionary zoning ordinance. We protected the mobilehome residents is San Leandro from unlawful rent hikes, co-sponsored state legislation (AB 2023) to strengthen housing planning laws, and defended the Surplus Land Act against rollbacks. We also ended discriminatory leasing policies in San Bernardino, increasing access for over 26,000 Section 8 tenants, and distributed a strategy brief for the legal aid sector related to use and ownership of land in California. 360153 Protecting and advancing civil rights of unhoused personsCalifornia is home to more than half of all unhoused people, many in unsafe conditions without access to basic necessities including food, shelter, and health care. PILP protects and advances the civil rights of unhoused people across the state; fights the criminalization of homelessness; and works to ensure equitable access to benefits and services that are designed to help unhoused people get and keep stable housing. In 2024, we continued to fight for the civil rights of unhoused persons in San Luis Obispo, San Francisco, and Santa Rosa. 360153 Breaking down barriers to equitable disbursement of public benefitsThose eligible for public benefits in California include chronically homeless people with disabilities, female-headed, and lower income families with children that disproportionately identify as female households and Black or Latina. PILP breaks down systemic barriers to the equitable disbursement of public benefits, primarily focused on CalFresh; CalWORKS; General Assistance/Relief; and other funds targeted to helping unhoused people, people with disabilities, immigrants, foster youth, and disaster survivors can meet their basic needs. In 2024, we developed and widely distributed a multilingual toolkit to expand access to underutilized housing and homelessness programs within public benefits frameworks, reaching qualified legal service programs, community groups, and thousands of eligible individuals. 1680715 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 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 13 0 1 12 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 CA X X Shashi Hanuman 5108919794 449 15th Street Suite 301 Oakland CA 94612 Miye Goishi Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Armen Nercessian Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Elizabeth Bluestein Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 William N Hebert President 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Irma Herrera Vice President 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Maeve Elise Brown Secretary/Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Tim Iglesias Board Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Shashi Hanuman Executive Director 40.00 X 130000 0 0 Melody Osuna Senior Attorney 40.00 X 100200 0 0 Michael Rawson Director of Litigation and Advocacy 40.00 X 115008 0 0 Craig Castellanet Senior Attorney 40.00 X 110200 0 0 Anaebere-Nicholson Ugochi Senior Attorney 40.00 X 110200 0 0 Lauren Hansen Wright Senior Attorney 40.00 X 106400 0 0 Melissa Morris Senior Attorney 40.00 X 111471 0 0 783479 0 0 7 0 0 0 COHEN-HICKS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT LLC 449 15TH ST SUITE 400 OAKLAND CA 94612 SPACE LEASE 200966 1 2227233 2227233 Court awarded attorney 561000 528148 528148 Reimbursed costs 561000 72695 72695 600843 27369 27369 2855445 628212 0 0 X 1134594 957798 160919 15877 138973 117318 19710 1945 62228 52531 8826 871 87214 73624 12370 1220 236458 195743 40636 79 3472 2931 492 49 194511 164202 27587 2722 6428 6303 125 3396 3247 149 16178 13657 2295 226 9722 8207 1379 136 Litigation related 33981 33981 Telephone and internet 19359 16574 2785 Library 15364 15364 Dues & related fees 13303 13303 7312 5932 1241 139 1982493 1680715 278240 23538 X 2329424 2803751 1058121 1956832 805605 312454 18463 36062 126215 81431 41319 44784 302068 141543 4555000 5295426 379107 291617 4849 126794 362670 195689 746626 614100 X 2576940 2701419 1231434 1979907 3808374 4681326 4555000 5295426 872952 0 X 0 1 X 0 0 X 432251 1689057 1715383 1133519 2227233 7197443 236978 853733 556861 696164 600843 2944579 669229 2542790 2272244 1829683 2828076 10142022 0 0 0 10142022 65765 68438 1721 2711 27369 166004 65765 68438 1721 2711 27369 166004 734994 2611228 2273965 1832394 2855445 10308026 0.98390 0.97870 0.01610 0.02130 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 63611 63611 1918882 1982493 249125 62281 0 0 228598 252635 249125 730358 1095537 50140 84572 63611 198323 57150 63159 62281 182590 273885 10500 10500 0 69561 69561 0 46154 1370 44784 44784 Deferred compensation 60019 Lease liabilities - operating leases 135670 195689 2862445 7000 7000 2855445 0 2855445 1989493 7000 7000 1982493 0 1982493 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b A copy of the completed form 990 is reviewed prior to filing.
