Servant leadership are on track to meet their year organizational goals. We were able to hire part-time staff who reflected the communities they serve. Each part-time staff member also received ongoing professional development and satisfactory evaluations. The primary milestone our learners were guided toward was completing career-connected community projects, focusing on specific challenges identified by participants and their approaches to addressing them. For housing insecurity, young leaders created an informative video and a resource poster board to raise awareness. They also assembled 'Necessity Bags' filled with essential hygiene products for distribution and facilitated connections between restaurants and shelters to redirect surplus food to individuals in temporary housing. To address community cleanliness, students organized cleanup drives to remove trash in their neighborhoods. One student utilized photography skills gained through the program to capture images and share them widely, raising awareness of both the challenges and the student's efforts. Additionally, a group of students wrote an article for the school newspaper about their experiences in YPLC and their community cleanup work. 140731 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true 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 false false false false false false true 16 0 true 4 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 4 0 true false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false NY X X Ella Baker Institute Inc 9174054495 603 Franklin Avenue Apt 4B Brooklyn NY 11238 Emani Ramos-Byam Director 40.00 0.00 X 88028 0 0 Patrice Fenton Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 71168 0 0 Ade Cox Director 40.00 0.00 X 48879 0 0 Addae Cox Director 20.00 0.00 X 27003 0 0 235078 0 false false false 0 568851 568851 YPLC and PCI 611710 26449 26449 26449 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 595300 26449 X 0 0 0 0 235078 235078 0 0 0 0 20442 20442 33169 33169 0 8195 8195 0 0 0 151092 89081 62011 2112 2112 11022 5800 5222 1460 1460 0 396 396 13771 13771 0 45163 43860 1303 0 0 0 0 Software/Apps 10976 10976 Meals - Food Vendor 8465 1990 6475 Contribution 2150 2150 Photography 1290 1290 1781 1781 546562 140731 405831 0 352602 390997 0 0 18950 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 352602 409947 8607 0 8607 X 352602 401340 352602 401340 352602 409947 48738 X X true X false true false X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 8606 Rounding 1 8607 true true true true true true true false false false false false false false false false false true Schedule E, Line 3 - Racially Nondiscriminatory Policy Publicized The Ella Baker Institute has prominently displayed its racially nondiscriminatory policy on its primary publicly accessible Internet homepage throughout the tax year.
