We empower our communities to achieve self-sufficiency by fostering collaboration among partners. 0 0 640155 46131 243259 The WNYCFSA serves as a coalition of more than 48 partner agencies, collaborating to provide essential resources and advocacy for farmworkers and migrant populations. These groups, many of whom are undocumented or recent arrivals to the United States, face significant challenges including housing insecurity, language barriers, and lack of access to healthcare and legal support. Our organization works to bridge these gaps, helping individuals and families access essential services while also advocating for equal rights and fair treatment within the agricultural sector and other low-wage industries. (Continued on Schedule O)Program Specifics:The Coalition has grown into a network of 48 partner organizations across six counties in Western NY (Cattaraugus, Erie, Genesee, Niagara, Orleans, Wyoming) and four counties in the Finger Lakes (Monroe, Livingston, Ontario, Wayne) regions.1. Outreach and Advocacy Program - Through our on-the-ground efforts, we have reached over 10,000 people with vital information on immigration protections, workplace rights, and pesticide safety. Our team also runs a hotline that connects individuals in crisis to emergency shelter, food, and other basic needs.2. Support Services Program - We provide comprehensive case management for farmworkers, migrant families, and newcomers, helping them navigate resources and build stability as they resettle in their communities. We have supported individuals addressing urgent needs such as legal representation, housing assistance, and healthcare access. Through assessments and personalized action plans, our team connects clients to local agencies and ensures they receive the wraparound services they need. Guided by a trauma-informed approach, we not only respond to immediate crises but also strengthen pathways to long-term stability and self-sufficiency.3. Immigration Legal Services Program - Our Program supports survivors of labor trafficking through direct legal representation and holistic, client-centered case management. In addition to guiding clients through the process of reporting to authorities, our legal team has assisted individuals with critical immigration relief, including T Visa applications, Deferred Action, Adjustment of Status, Temporary Protected Status (TPS), and Naturalization. In December 2024, the Coalition achieved DOJ Recognition as an authorized legal service provider, an important milestone that expanded our ability to assist with asylum applications, employment authorization, and other essential immigration petitions. Our Executive Director and Program Director also received their DOJ Accreditation. This recognition strengthens our capacity to help immigrant families pursue legal status and long-term protection, reaffirming our mission to uphold justice, dignity, and empowerment for all.4. Community Engagement - The Coalition fosters strong regional collaboration by coordinating monthly meetings with its network of 48 partner organizations. These meetings serve as a platform for resource sharing, collective problem-solving, and coordinated advocacy efforts. As part of our commitment to building community capacity, the Coalition also provides specialized training to partner organizations and government agencies on identifying labor trafficking, understanding legal remedies, and navigating appropriate referral pathways. 640155 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 6 0 1 21 1 0 0 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 1 1 1 1 1 0 NY X X Kenny Carmona 5852100383 1859 Brooks Ave Apt 2 Rochester NY 14624 Arlene Jones Wilson Board Chair 2.50 X X 0 0 0 Steven E Cole Treasurer 2.50 X X 0 0 0 Amber Mesita Secretary (through 9/20/24) 2.50 X X 0 0 0 Cindy Lopez-Paz Vice-Chair 2.50 X X 0 0 0 Wanda Martinez-Johncox Member at Large 2.50 X 0 0 0 Gabriel Marcano Member at Large 2.50 X 0 0 0 David E Bell Member at Large (starting 11/1/24) 2.50 X 0 0 0 Ricky Rivera Member at Large (starting 11/1/24) 2.50 X 0 0 0 Michelle Medina Member at Large (starting 11/1/24) 2.50 X 0 0 0 Rashid Muhammad Member at Large (through 4/14/24) 2.50 X 0 0 0 Maryann Rivera-Dannert Member at Large (through 12/23/24) 2.50 X 0 0 0 Irene Sanchez Executive Director 35.00 X 85000 0 12225 85000 0 12225 0 0 0 0 0 7083 49999 660362 717444 Case Management Servic 624100 243259 243259 243259 35293 35293 3642 7083 3642 0 995996 243259 0 35293 46131 46131 97486 64341 33145 388411 355768 32643 59159 54090 5069 42153 36673 5480 62467 6922 55545 25098 4550 20548 14114 12279 1835 19340 17406 1934 19562 19562 428 428 9662 8406 1256 Supplies 10825 10825 9361 3202 6159 804197 640155 164042 0 29500 14232 899390 453897 161795 225655 3910 1386 2952 2524 0 53218 1093637 749526 28736 12500 762083 242409 790819 254909 X 268315 492409 34503 2208 302818 494617 1093637 749526 191799 0 X 1 X 0 1 0 X 11292 25443 164626 574673 717444 1493478 1085 329707 243259 574051 11292 25443 165711 904380 960703 2067529 138715 419731 407729 966175 0 138715 419731 407729 966175 1101354 61 18003 35293 53357 61 18003 35293 53357 2000 1716 3642 7358 13292 25443 165772 924099 999638 2128244 0.51750 0.48560 0.02510 0.01600 X Schedule A, Part III, Line 12, Explanation of Other Income: Reimbursement for lost items in storage Other Income Special Events Gross Income RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 3910 1386 2524 2524 Right-of-Use Asset - Operating Lease 53218 53218 Refundable Advance 186818 Operating Lease Liability 55591 242409 1 Migrant crisis support services 312 8370 37761 Cost Emergency housing, food, personal hygiene, transportation, interpretation, winter coats, legal filing fees, medical fees, cellphone, school supplies Part I, Line 2: Step 1: Identification of Need A staff member identifies a client's immediate need for direct support, which may include: -Purchase of items such as food, clothing, or household essentials. -Provision of gift cards to cover necessary expenses. -Emergency housing or rent assistance. -Assistance with filing fees.
