All driven by a belief that the stronger groups are across an issue sector and the tighter their collaboration, the more likely they are to win real and lasting social change. ReThink works in several distinct, yet interconnected, issue areas: combating bigotry and advancing human and civil rights; ensuring fair elections, impartial courts, and a more representative democracy; and working to end militarism and advance a more just and constructive US foreign and national security policy. false false 832558 Inclusive Democracy CollaborativeAchievement for this program:Democracy Collaborative (DC) works with leading local, regional, and national groupsand advocates to ensure that all Americans have an equal voice by promoting judicialand campaign finance reform, increasing transparency, and protecting voting rights.All elections, whether at the federal, state, or local level, are disproportionatelyaffected by those with the most money to spend on campaign contributions. In judicial elections, moneyed interests are working to stack the courts with judges who support their political or commercial interests. Meanwhile, more and more Americans are being excluded from participation by growing limits on voter access and voting rights. To address this, we build groups capacity to shift the narrative - from problems to solutions, from cynicism to action-reach new audiences, make new allies, and strengthen the diversity and impact of a growing movement including members of the emerging New American Majority-communities of color, women, and young people-Democrats and Republicans alike. 532711 15680 12024 Peace & Security CollaborativeAchievement for this program:Peace and Security Collaborative (PSC) works with the nation's foremost leaders and experts, advocating solutions to some of the most complex and challenging national security issues of the 21st century. These include US policy toward Iran, securing nuclear material around the world, reducing the global nuclear arsenal, and trimming excessive Pentagon spending. In addition, the Organization supports the work of groups addressing conflict prevention, working toward more accountability and transparency for the proliferation and military use of drones and targeting killing, and in support of curtailing the International Arms Trade. 438844 3546 Rights & Inclusion CollaborativeAchievement for this program:Our Rights and Inclusion team works with Muslim, Arab, Sikh, and South Asian American communities and leaders across the country, with allies opposing hate-crimes and anti-Muslim prejudice, and with U.S.-based Muslim and non-Muslim allies promoting cultural equity and inclusion in the arts. With the support of our partners, ReThink Media launched a Speakers Bureau, a multi-year effort to address the lack of representation of Muslim, Arab, and South Asian American spokespeople in the media. To-date we have trained hundreds of community members and of community members and leaders across the country with expertise on a broad range of issues beyond just Islam, Muslims, or nations of origin in subjects as varied as the arts, national security, healthcare, domestic violence, and pop culture. And we have provided hands-on media outreach support to connect this growing network of spokespeople to journalists, producers, and bookers across the country. 377870 34915 2181983 true true false true false false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false false true false false false true false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true 16 0 true 35 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 9 9 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X Rethink Media 5108455789 2443 Fillmore St 380-7140 San Francisco CA 94115 Lynn Fahselt Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 160074 0 40970 Peter Ferenbach Director of Strategy 40.00 0.00 162455 0 9456 Fadwa Rashid Dir. of Finance 40.00 0.00 X 109126 0 20811 Eva Galanes-Rosenbaum Chief of Staff 40.00 0.00 115663 0 14252 Kirstin Alvanitakis Program Dir. 40.00 0.00 104581 0 19282 Nancy Chi Cantalupo Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tyler Lewis Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Reva Patwardhan Board Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Chris Dunn Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kathy Armstrong Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Todd Kolze Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sapreet Kaur Saluja Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bradley Akubuiro Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mark Crain Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 651899 104771 5 false true false 0 65384 2100052 2165436 Consulting Services 813990 50485 50485 50485 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Other Income 900099 19240 19240 19240 2235161 69725 15680 15680 0 0 0 431654 358056 50811 22787 0 1342140 1113300 157987 70853 0 146819 120784 18711 7324 142558 118482 16677 7399 112306 25276 86235 795 5617 5617 83961 83961 0 19000 19000 0 69810 18007 50534 1269 0 49055 30755 17231 1069 79717 60212 15626 3879 0 34155 26763 5834 1558 22739 19863 2824 52 0 8306 8306 0 0 0 12108 6077 5845 186 Media outreach and monitoring 260422 260422 0 2836047 2181983 517893 136171 2568966 2114568 0 859241 193526 118 0 0 0 0 44559 84739 0 433571 1129676 0 0 0 375797 1250 4282134 3523877 237810 113685 30922 29100 204230 206129 472962 348914 X 2141825 2404616 1667347 770347 3809172 3174963 4282134 3523877 -600886 -33323 X false true X true false X 2552307 2710426 2035638 3699013 2165436 13162820 0 0 2552307 2710426 2035638 3699013 2165436 13162820 1898620 11264200 8112 5454 8314 21880 0 109881 40940 19240 170061 13354761 951061 0.84350 0.71360 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false 7304 7304 2828743 2836047 291802 72951 false 291802 291802 437703 7304 7304 72951 72951 109427 Accrued vacation payable 53939 Sabbatical Liability 152190 206129 2224671 -33323 22833 -10490 2235161 2235161 2858880 22833 22833 2836047 2836047 false Elevate 1201 Connecticut NW 503 Washington DC 20036 Fundraising Support false 19000 19000 false Women of Color Advancing Peac 3695 Ketchum Court Woodbridge VA 22193 15680 0 1 0 X X false false false false false false false false false Lynn Fahselt Executive Dir. 160074 7202 33768 201044 Peter Ferenbach Director of Strategy 162455 7272 2184 171911 Roger Cox Former Finance 3887 Accounting and Reporting false Schedule L, Part V Supplemental Information Roger Cox, former Director of Finance $3887.00 for accounting and reporting support Form 990, Part III, Line 4d OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: AnalysisAchievement for this program:The Analysis team strategically maps the media and public opinion landscape to ensure that the right voices are heard, at the right moment, and in the right mediums to shift public opinion and achieve policy wins. In 2022, the Analysis team unveiled a proprietary public opinion tracker, embedded in our website, that features over 20,000 poll questions relevant to ReThinks issue areas. Our program teams and partner groups can now search our database for any of the issues we work on and find detailed information about public polling that has been conducted in the last five years. We also fielded a public opinion poll about a good governance ballot initiative in Oakland, California (Measure W) and exactly predicted the proportion of Oakland residents to vote Yes on the measure - 74%. We also provided our partner organizations with in-depth data and analysis about media coverage and public opinion research on a range of issues, including ranked-choice voting, the Freedom to Vote Act, the invasion of Ukraine, and the anniversary of the 2012 Oak Creek shooting.
