Our annual California Preservation Conference, held in Sacramento, brought more than 675 preservation professionals, community leaders, students, and advocates together for four days of education, networking, and advocacy in the State Capitol. The conference featured dozens of sessions on preservation, climate resilience, economic revitalization, and housing, while connecting attendees with state policymakers and preservation leaders. A conference highlight was a half-day forum exploring how thoughtfully designed standards can increase missing middle housing while protecting Californias historic homes and neighborhoods. Throughout the year, CPF also presented more than 30 webinars and educational programs reaching over 4,100 participants statewide. Doors Open California continued to expand, opening more than 70 historic sites to the public. CPF also invested in the next generation through scholarships, paid student fellowships, and research opportunities under our Underrecognized California initiative. 62164 FY24/25 marked a major expansion of CPFs advocacy leadership. During the Sacramento Conference, CPF organized its first-ever Preservation Lobby Day at the State Capitol, bringing advocates together to meet directly with legislators. This event strengthened CPFs presence as the statewide voice for preservation and created a new model for member engagement. CPF also co-sponsored AB 1265 with Assemblymember Matt Haney to renew and expand Californias Historic Preservation Tax Credit. This significant initiative promotes historic rehabilitation as an economic development and housing strategy by encouraging adaptive reuse, revitalizing communities, and creating jobs. Throughout the year, CPF mobilized members through advocacy alerts, coalition building, and direct engagement with policymakers. These efforts strengthened its statewide Advocacy Network, ensuring preservation remained central to discussions regarding housing, 15718 CPF continued to broaden the stories represented in Californias historic places through research and National Register nominations through our Underrecognized California program, employing students to prepare nominations under the guidance of preservation consulting firms. During FY24/25, the Foundation successfully secured listing of the James Dodd Office Building in Sacramento on the National Register of Historic Places, recognizing the work of Sacramentos first African American architect and preserving the legacy of a pioneering Black design professional. CPF also began documenting the Firma Lodge in Vallejo for nomination to the National Register. For more than a century, the lodge has served as an important civic, cultural, and fraternal gathering place for Vallejos African American community, making it a significant symbol of the citys Black history and heritage.Together, these projects demonstrate CPFs commitment to preserving Californias diverse history and ensuring that the stories reflected in our historic places represent the full breadth of the states communities. 308512 true true false true false false true false false 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 false false false false false false true 7 0 true 3 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 17 17 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true false false true true false CA X Cindy Heitzman 4154950349 101 The Embarcadero Suite 120 San Francisco CA 94105 X Cindy Heitzman Executive Director 040.00 X 105533 0 0 Carson Anderson Vice President Development 001.00 X X 0 0 0 Antonio Castillo Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Gretchen Hilyard Boyce Vice President Programs 001.50 X X 0 0 0 Laura Dominguez Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Annabel Enriquez President 001.50 X X 0 0 0 Trudi Sandmeier Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Matthew Worster Treasurer 001.00 X X 0 0 0 Nicole Hernandez Secretary 000.75 X X 0 0 0 Megan Carver Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Clare Flynn Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Tony Gonzalez Trustee 003.00 X 0 0 0 Paul Halajian AIA Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Lynette Hall Trustee 001.25 X 0 0 0 Diana Hayton Trustee 000.75 X 0 0 0 Bridget Maley Trustee 001.25 X 0 0 0 Jim Prager Trustee 001.00 X 0 0 0 105533 1 false false false 1 5246 195629 200875 Membership Dues 102540 102540 Conferences, Trainings and Product Sales 138112 138112 240652 12196 12196 5246 Other revenue 915 915 915 454638 241567 12196 0 1999 1999 0 0 107350 62711 19591 25048 0 132876 81768 27918 23190 0 6904 4238 1530 1136 19272 12189 4144 2939 0 1050 1050 7472 7472 30000 30000 0 23947 14145 9782 20 0 14873 9417 2298 3158 7121 4968 1332 821 0 34277 25673 2729 5875 9186 9116 70 0 33034 32209 825 0 0 0 3566 1295 1968 303 Dues, Contributions, Memberships Fees 21381 13374 2435 5572 Program Supplies 1475 1475 Communications 5333 3308 1548 477 Other Personnel Costs 2291 627 1517 147 0 463407 308512 86209 68686 245756 239207 309002 321183 29580 12480 3388 8272 2776 2776 5014 5014 592740 586156 14290 41574 25099 39389 41574 X 396086 411556 157265 133026 553351 544582 592740 586156 -8769 X false false false X 276325 284620 273789 227815 200875 1263424 276325 284620 273789 227815 200875 1263424 79060 1184364 538 495 118 2278 12196 15625 915 915 1279964 974394 0.92530 0.99880 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 5895 41318 47213 416194 463407 92681 23170 91533 74908 91729 92681 350851 526277 31023 20479 24118 47213 122833 22883 18727 22932 23170 87712 131568 9932 9580 10805 5895 36212 X 2 1.00 2 1 true 12.00 800 true false 2776 2776 Financial derivatives and other financial products Closely-held equity interests Federal income taxes Other Liabilities Scholarship 1 1000 Scholarship 1 999 Form 990, Part VII, Line 11b The 990 is circulated to all members of the governing body before filing Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c The board is asked about conflicts of interest annually and each board member must remove him/herself from board discussions and votes related to matters which could be conflicts of interest.
