Overview
Mission
The LA County DA Foundation is a pending 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to creating safer communities through education, advocacy, and rehabilitation. We will support programs meant to equip young people with a better understanding of the criminal justice system and the dangers of narcotics like fentanyl, support the rights and needs of victims and their families, and reduce recidivism by providing innovative opportunities for incarcerated individuals to develop productive skills for successful reentry into society.
What it reported doing in 2025
Our foundation supports providers of resources, legal assistance, and emotional support to help victim rights groups amplify their voices and ensure that justice is pursued. We aim to provide support for families to help them navigate the complexities of the criminal justice system, ensuring their loved ones are remembered and that their rights are protected.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
