Together, these services ensure continuity of care and decision-making while protecting housing stability and long-term financial security. 133596 Impact Litigation: We pursue strategic, high-impact cases to address systemic injustice and hold institutions accountable. In 2025, this work focused on preventing the unlawful seizure and destruction of property belonging to individuals experiencing homelessness, alongside broader efforts to protect civil rights at scale. 133596 Special Education: We advocate for children with disabilities to access appropriate educational services and remain in stable school placements. Our work includes IEP advocacy, due process representation, and expulsion prevention, helping students receive the support they need to succeed and transition into adulthood. 133596 Disability Rights: We protect the rights of people with disabilities and individuals experiencing homelessness through direct legal services focused on housing stability, access to benefits, and conditions of confinement. This includes preventing unlawful evictions, addressing disability discrimination in shelters and housing, advocating for accommodations, and challenging practices such as unlawful vehicle towing that disproportionately impact vulnerable communities. 133596 776522 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 84 0 true 16 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X Brooke Weitzman 7146175353 1535 East 17th Street Suite 110 Santa Ana CA 92705 X Carol Sobel Chair 4.50 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Akhil Sheth Vice President 0.50 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Heidi Plummer Secretary 0.50 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jordana Furman Treasurer 7.50 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mimi Ahn Director 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Reza Torkzadeh Director 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rebekah Thomas Director 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dan Sasse Director 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Corey Steady Director 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Porsche Clark Director 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 558621 433277 991898 Legal Fees 541100 271321 271321 271321 11622 11622 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Fiscal Sponsorship 900099 22175 22175 22175 1297016 271321 33797 0 0 0 0 120213 111798 8415 0 467527 434800 32727 21324 19831 1493 22814 21217 1597 55047 51194 3853 0 281 261 20 18226 18226 0 0 0 22500 20925 1575 0 35436 32955 2481 24269 22570 1699 0 45255 42087 3168 8612 8009 603 0 0 0 0 13 12 1 11681 10863 818 Fiscal Sponsorship Expense 49848 49848 0 903046 776522 126524 0 669425 1074804 0 0 12961 1703 0 0 0 0 0 25985 25985 13 0 0 0 0 0 27299 49320 709698 1125827 3996 4764 25395 46786 29391 51550 X 680307 884277 190000 680307 1074277 709698 1125827 393970 X false true X false false X 227513 254604 317708 502609 991898 2294332 153075 234466 368402 345150 271321 1372414 0 0 0 380588 489070 686110 847759 1263219 3666746 25000 65000 87000 177000 0 25000 65000 87000 177000 3489746 37 970 11951 12958 0 37 970 11951 12958 0 33797 33797 380588 489107 687080 859710 1297016 3713501 0.93970 0.96480 0.00350 0.00440 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 25985 25985 Trust Account Payable 46786 46786 1297016 1297016 1297016 903046 903046 903046 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Executive Director provided the 990 to the board and the board reviewed it.
