PEOPLE WITH CRIMINAL RECORDS FACE UNPRECEDENTED, LIFELONG BARRIERS TO OBTAINING AND RETAINING GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT, ACCESSING EDUCATION AT ALL LEVELS, AND FINDING STABLE HOUSING. OJPC'S SECOND CHANCE COMMUNITY LEGAL CLINICS PROVIDE EXPERT 1 ON 1 LEGAL SUPPORT TO PEOPLE WITH CRIMINAL RECORDS. THROUGH THE LEGAL CLINICS AND OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS, WE SCREEN PEOPLE FOR CRIMINAL RECORD SEALING, HELP INDIVIDUALS OBTAIN COURT-ISSUED REHABILITATION CERTIFICATES FOR EMPLOYMENT PURPOSES , PROVIDE REPRESENTATION TO HUMAN TRAFFICKING SURVIVORS; RESOLVE COURT FINES, FEES, AND COSTS; AND HELP OHIOANS IN REMOVING OTHER LEGAL BARRIERS TO EMPLOYMENT, LICENSING, HOUSING, OR CIVIC PARTICIPATION. 393867 DECARCERATION:OJPC'S BEYOND GUILT PROJECT ADDRESSES OUR STRATEGIC GOAL TO REDUCE THE SIZE AND RACIAL DISPARITY OF THE STATE POPULATION OF INCARCERATED PEOPLE SAFELY AND SUBSTANTIALLY. LAUNCHED IN THE SPRING OF 2019, BEYOND GUILT WORKS TO FREE OVER-PUNISHED PEOPLE WHO HAVE SERVED SIGNIFICANT PORTIONS OF THEIR SENTENCES AND CAN DEMONSTRATE REHABILITATION AND READINESS TO REJOIN SOCIETY. BASED ON THE PREMISE THAT ALL PEOPLE ARE CAPABLE OF ACHIEVING REHABILITATION AND REDEMPTION, INCLUDING PEOPLE WHO COMMITTED A VIOLENT CRIME OR OTHER SERIOUS OFFENSE, WE BELIEVE (TO PARAPHRASE SISTER HELEN PREJEAN AND BRYAN STEVENSON) THAT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE FOREVER DEFINED BY THEIR WORST ACTS. BEYOND GUILT AIMS TO DO FOR THE OVER-PUNISHED PRISONERS WHO ADMIT GUILT WHAT INNOCENCE PROJECTS HAVE DONE FOR WRONGFULLY CONVICTED PERSONS. TO DATE, BEYOND GUILT HAS FREED MORE THAN 40 PEOPLE.WE ARE ALSO LITIGATING TWO LAWSUITS AGAINST THE OHIO PAROLE BOARD TO FORCE CHANGES THAT WOULD HELP MORE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE REHABILITATED THEMSELVES GAIN THEIR FREEDOM. 83924 HUMAN RIGHTS IN PRISON:THROUGH ITS IMPACT LITIGATION AND ADVOCACY, OJPC'S THIRD STRATEGIC GOAL IS TO ELIMINATE UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND DANGEROUS CONDITIONS OF CONFINEMENT FOR THOSE LIVING IN OHIO PRISONS. IN 1982, THERE WERE APPROXIMATELY 17,000 PEOPLE INCARCERATED IN OHIO PRISONS, BUT THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 45,000 TODAY (DOWN FROM APPROXIMATELY 50,000 AT THE BEGINNING OF 2020). AS THE PRISON POPULATION HAS RAPIDLY GROWN OVER THE YEARS, AND THE STATE HAS STRUGGLED TO PAY THE COSTS OF INCARCERATING SO MANY PEOPLE, PRISON CONDITIONS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY DETERIORATED. INCARCERATED PEOPLE FACE AN ENORMOUS RANGE OF LEGAL AND HEALTH ISSUES LIKELY TO RESULT IN SERIOUS HARM OR DEATH. OJPC ALSO ADVOCATES FOR STATEWIDE POLICIES THAT ELIMINATE UNFAIR TREATMENT OF INCARCERATED PEOPLE. 140539 OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES:OJPC'S OTHER WORK INCLUDES OUR CONSTITUTIONAL LITIGATION CLINIC, WHICH PROVIDES HANDS-ON LEGAL EDUCATION FOR 3RD AND 4TH YEAR LAW SCHOOL STUDENTS AT NKU'S CHASE COLLEGE OF LAW. THE STUDENTS ARE OVERSEEN BY OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, AND THEY GAIN EXPERIENCE LITIGATING CIVIL RIGHTS CASES. OJPC ALSO WORKS TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ABOUT THE NEED FOR CRIMINAL LEGAL SYSTEM REFORM THROUGH VARIOUS COMMUNITY PRESENTATIONS. POLICY AND LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACYOJPC CONDUCTS POLICY RESEARCH, POLICY DEVELOPMENT, AND ADVOCACY, INCLUDING A LIMITED AMOUNT OF LOBBYING, IN SERVICE OF THREE OVERARCHING OBJECTIVES: SAFELY AND SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCING THE SIZE AND RACIAL DISPARITY OF THE STATE PRISON POPULATION, EXPANDING THE FREEDOM OF PEOPLE WITH CRIMINAL RECORDS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR COMMUNITIES; AND PROTECTING THE HUMAN RIGHTS AND DIGNITY OF INCARCERATED PEOPLE. 140539 1061604 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 8 0 1 21 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 17 17 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 OH X THE ORGANIZATION 5134211108 215 EAST 9TH STREET SUITE 601 CINCINNATI OH 45202 X DAVID ZIMMERMAN CHAIR 4.00 X X 0 0 0 DR NINA E LEWIS VICE CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 MEGAN DOOLEY TREASURER 2.00 X X 0 0 0 WANDA SPIVEY SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 SISTER SALLY DUFFY GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 OFFICER LOUIS ARNOLD SR TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 PETER BECK TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 ROBERT COLLINS TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DION CROCKETT TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 REV SHARON DITTMAR TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAN FALES TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 JAMES JOHNSON TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 BESS MESSERMAN TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 PETER OLMSTED TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 LILLIE SHOCKLEY TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 BRIAN SULLIVAN TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHELE YOUNG TRUSTEE 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAVID SINGLETON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 431778 457665 454 889443 CONSULTING INCOME 541100 41500 41500 41500 667 667 145956 35321 110635 110635 MISC REVENUE 900099 1606 1606 1606 1043851 41500 0 112908 903843 592916 211690 99237 15593 13254 1092 1247 102120 86802 7148 8170 71044 46629 16789 7626 40350 30666 4439 5245 45000 45000 556 556 68262 63205 1255 3802 43963 33412 5715 4836 52006 39525 5720 6761 101574 77196 11173 13205 26693 25358 534 801 381 381 5629 4278 619 732 10474 7960 1152 1362 DUES & SUBSCRIPTIONS 17276 13130 1900 2246 MISCELLANEOUS 16035 12347 1764 1924 EQUIPMENT RENTAL 12346 9383 1358 1605 LITIGATION EXPENSE 5293 5293 1431 250 1181 1539869 1061604 273285 204980 98260 81685 1835395 1616054 600000 268269 126194 195346 19199 20002 527875 55317 9500 472558 153537 147207 2842085 2801121 68572 73612 18164 0 0 476831 86736 550443 X 2035455 1982409 719894 268269 2755349 2250678 2842085 2801121 -496018 -8653 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 856105 1919720 1348819 2195274 889443 7209361 856105 1919720 1348819 2195274 889443 7209361 2074248 5135113 1176 4815 6120 1203 667 13981 58976 126729 70960 110635 367300 7590642 176188 0.67650 0.68150 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 16557 48731 65288 1474581 1539869 226993 56748 0 0 155198 210029 216180 226993 808400 1212600 30076 51547 47760 65288 194671 38800 52507 54045 56748 202100 303150 755 6430 7109 16557 30851 68076 55317 12759 459799 459799 472558 OPERATING LEASE LIABILITIES 476831 476831 X 1175110 -8653 125000 14912 131259 1043851 0 1043851 1679781 125000 14912 139912 1539869 0 1539869 PART X, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION IS A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE CODE; ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES HAS BEEN MADE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
