Overview
Mission
The organization was established to promote social welfare, combat community deterioration, defend human and civil rights secured by law, and promote the common good and general welfare of the people by educating the public and elected officials in California that the policies being discussed and made by government bodies have a direct and lasting effect on the people and families of the state; to provide a forum and means for those concerned about the adverse economic fallout of these policies and promote civic action to correct any damage these policies may have caused.
What it reported doing in 2025
The organization conducts educational activities in an objective manner, with a sufficiently full and fair exposition of the pertinent facts as will permit an individual or the public to form an independent opinion or conclusion.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
