LPOC supported AIM MiMentors creation of a live interactive workshop that was recorded and utilized by mentors asynchronously since it is difficult to find a universally available time for all busy working physicians residents and medical students to meet at the same time. Through this grant we were able to recruit and train more than 30 mentors and experienced our highest attendance rate of mentors for any Medical School Readiness MSR workshop to-date with 36 mentors joining us at one of our workshops to support our MSR students. Additionally all MSR participants are paired with a one-to-one direct mentor. MSR had 130 mentors total which included 29 mentors from Northern California 15 from Central California 51 from Southern California and the remainder of the mentors were located in various states across the U.S. With increased MSR funding we expect the number of annual admitted students to double within five years and triple within ten years. This is a significant contribution when one considers that only 110 Latinx students graduate from California medical schools annually. We recruited 5 students to participate in our inaugural Together We Succeed pathway program for pre-health professional students in community college. Through this program we provided two workshops two annual pre-health conferences and peer-to-peer mentorship. The program focuses on helping students establish a foundation for transferring to four-year undergraduate programs and participants learned about transfer medical school and graduate school requirements. 50000 25000 Breaking the Cycle organized and executed by Dr. Jenny Espinoza Executive Director of Back to the Start Back produced powerful narratives written by incarcerated individuals underscoring the need for critical investments in early childhood and family resources to avoid or at least mitigate Adverse Childhood Experiences ACEs. Grounded in the power of stories Back to the Start provides missing viewpoints to help build empathy and a shared understanding of the impact of ACEs disproportionately present in the justice-involved and incarcerated populations in the state. This gathering honors a group of incarcerated individuals who completed an intensive trauma-informed program that led them to confront and share stories of their childhood experiences and traumas. The purpose of this project was to drive meaningful policy change to support families and prevent incarceration for future generations. The project displayed and profiled ACEs experiences among the incarcerated bringing into focus the connection between the cycle of trauma poverty and incarceration in an effort to shift perspectives inspire systemic change and reduce the likelihood of incarceration in future generations. 20000 20000 45000 LUIS ROBERTO PEA Chief Executive Officer 8 51062 0 0 Jose A Arevalo MD Chairperson of the Board 8 0 0 0 Silvia Diego MD Chief Financial Officer 5 0 0 0 Richard Baker MD Secretary 5 0 0 0 false false false false false false false false false CA Katie M Kerner 1001 K ST FL 6 SACRAMENTO CA 95814 9167018999 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 0 0 0 0 73437 73437 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 73437 73437 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 73437 0 0 0 0 105 105 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 105 105 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 73542 73542 0.9986 0.99 0.0014 0.01 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Part I, line 16 | Other Expenses:, Amount:| Website development and maintenance mailchimp mailing services contribution processing fees stripe., $12552.00| The organization discharged its former contract executive officer when the Board determined that he had not filed or arranged to be filed the organizations information returns in any of the Form 990 series.
