Our flagship after-school program improves the academic performance of Latino children while simultaneously supporting parents to build English literacy and develop leadership skills to advocate for their childrens education. Parents build an understanding of child development milestones, early learning goals, community resources and educational systems to help them forge a path for the academic and life success of their children. Seventy-nine children K-8 and eighty parents participated. We had 5 groups for children divided by grade and age for academic support, fun, recreational cultural activities and emotional support and 2 levels of English classes for the parents. 229442 LEADERSHIP/ADVOCACY/ORGANIZING. The Academia of Leadership develops the leadership, confidence, skills and civic engagement of parents in the Latino community. We practice advocacy and community organizing. Six immigrant leaders graduated in 2022. We follow-up on our graduates after graduation to continue their growth within the community, and help to integrate them into different committees performing different roles in the community. During 2022 we started the workforce development program focused on understanding the needs of working aged community members 18-60 years old. Through one-on-one conversations, we surveyed them to understand their ambitions and identify the barriers our community faces in the workforce. We can then work to lessen those barriers by empowering them as workers and as community leaders. 161098 HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH PROGRAMS. The Programming Club was very successful in 2022. Here, 9th-12th graders have the opportunity to learn how to program for free. They begin by taking our Level 1 course, then graduate to Level 2. After only a year, our number of youth participants as well as class engagement has increased. Our average attendance rate was higher than 80. To conclude a successful year, our youth had the opportunity to tour Google and build connections with software engineers. Though we provide the opportunity to gain a new skill, the real accomplishment is seeing them gain confidence in their management and mastery of the computer, and even to develop genuine career interest in programming. With an increase of activity came an increase of youth participation in our Latinx Youth Program. These activities varied from academic support, positive growth, community building, creative art and games. The space we provide our youth allows for them to feel comfortable and safe knowing they can raise any question or concern. Sixty-four youth were involved in this program in 2022. 300451 993659 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false 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 true 5 0 true 11 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false X 4 4 false false false false false false false true false false false true true false true true true true false false X Virginia Herrera-Paramo 2062417900 15220 6th Ave SW Burien WA 98166 Virginia Herrera-Paramo Executive Director 055.00 X 84000 0 17442 Bevin Taylor Chair Board Member 003.00 X X 0 0 0 Tania Santiago Pastrana Treasurer Board Member 004.00 X X 0 0 0 Alexander Finale Secretary Board Member 001.00 X X 0 0 0 Kristyn Joy Board Member 001.50 X 0 0 0 84000 17442 1 false false false 45975 229347 1424939 1700261 City of Burien contract work 900099 500 500 500 27013 45975 25900 1113 1701874 500 0 0 0 0 0 0 578334 498105 31270 48959 0 59976 53326 2687 3963 43963 39219 1670 3074 0 0 27025 27025 0 14973 14973 0 84748 43406 41342 20748 17968 1079 1701 74153 69536 1399 3218 73299 65341 3088 4870 0 83776 72998 4182 6596 25281 22053 1253 1975 0 46523 42446 1582 2495 0 0 0 6642 4601 1605 436 Teachers Childcare Contractors 61697 61697 Fees Miscellaneous 4500 2963 1458 79 0 1205638 993659 119640 92339 1311429 1508937 300404 657127 13164 16000 11674 1640997 2177738 31748 72253 31748 72253 X 1334249 1459982 275000 645503 1609249 2105485 1640997 2177738 496236 X false false false X 592003 1268971 1024923 839021 1700261 5425179 592003 1268971 1024923 839021 1700261 5425179 1090318 4334861 1645 1209 2854 5428033 114000 0.79860 0.78890 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Gala 72988 45975 27013 15494 2068 8338 72988 45975 27013 15494 2068 8338 25900 1113 Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Program Service Expenses 87,872, Grants and allocations 0, Revenue 0 SUMMER PROGRAM.

Our Family Resources office serves the families of the Latino and Spanish-speaking community in the Highline area. We provide them with information on the programs we have at PLN, and provide assistance with their daily needs-- for them and their children. We have the opportunity to interact closely with families from different cultures, customs and traditions which allows us to identify with some things and learn from others as well. Because the Spanish language unites us, an empathy is created. We can better identify and understand their needs, so they are more confident that we can achieve the objective of supporting them successfully.
