Through interactive lessons for high school and college students, we inspired critical thinking and facilitated dynamic discussions about the connections between industrial animal agriculture and key issues impacting us all-such as animal welfare, climate change and environmental sustainability, human rights, and personal and public health. Our unique programming was led by passionate educators trained to lead and facilitate challenging conversations with students often encountering these topics for the first time. The Organization also accomplished leadership development. In the Leadership Academy, participants gained tools to build a foundation for structural change within their institutions and communities. Participants had the option to apply to continue in the academic-year fellowship, which ran through the fall and spring terms. In the fellowship, each participant collaborated with New Roots Institute and a partner organization to pursue an individualized campaign, driving change on their campus and in their communities. Fellows received coaching, mentorship, and access to learning and career development opportunities. Alumni continued to receive support from New Roots Institute and remained part of both the Leadership Program and a broader, lifelong alumni network. 1018961 true 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 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 1 0 true 33 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 5 4 false false true false false false false true false false false false true true true true true true true false CA CO CT FL GA HI IL KY MA MD ME MI NC NH NJ NM NY OH OR PA RI SC WA WI X X Kara Lombard 2095538009 1110 N Virgil Ave Suite 98280 Los Angeles CA 90029 Monica Chen Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 81980 0 4582 Jesse Tandler Managing Director 40.00 0.00 X 79204 0 4417 Naomi Sachs Chair Director 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Bonnie Brown Treasurer Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jennifer Barckley Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jim Glauber Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kia Hill Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 161184 8999 0 false false false 0 2664183 24605 2664183 Program service fees 611710 12763 12763 12763 40068 40068 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Miscellaneous 670 670 670 2717684 12763 40738 18076 18076 22960 22960 0 0 202179 91207 30402 80570 0 975448 704472 161879 109097 0 14055 10401 3654 100993 65450 20231 15312 0 0 23500 23500 0 0 0 14493 8406 3333 2754 7437 2231 5206 27949 16210 6428 5311 59673 34610 13725 11338 0 0 50170 27594 13545 9031 0 0 0 0 0 2896 2896 Miscellaneous 18234 468 17664 102 Program supplies 16876 16876 Registration fees 7207 7207 Bank fees 700 700 0 1562846 1018961 305164 238721 177727 0 1021766 1384916 240000 763500 0 0 0 0 0 1778 18062 0 461241 0 0 0 0 1441271 2627719 67457 63304 15878 67457 79182 X 1373814 1508037 1040500 1373814 2548537 1441271 2627719 1154838 19885 X X false true X true false X 1023578 1489539 1195999 1550990 2664183 7924289 0 0 1023578 1489539 1195999 1550990 2664183 7924289 901223 7023066 1314 976 130 31944 40068 74432 0 360 9969 673 11002 8009723 47662 0.87680 0.96190 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED true Fed JAIN Assoc of N America 722 S Main Street Milpitas CA 95035 541280028 6001 0 ProVeg International 82 Wendell Avenue 100 Pittsfield MA 02101 463038496 501(c)(3) 10000 0 Sponsor Animal & Vegan Summit 2 0 Project grants 97 22960 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used Grant provided once the fellowship requirements were met. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4 Updated the organization's name to "New Roots Institute". Added the vision and mission in the purpose section. Further align the bylaws with Oregon law (including recent amendments). Add a section to permit a Board action by email vote (as permitted by Oregon law). Include other non-material revisions such as formatting revisions. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b We have not provided a copy of the 990 to the Board of Directors. Historically it was prepared by an outside CPA firm and reviewed by the Executive Director and/or Operations Director. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Any Director, officer, or member of a committee with Board of Directors delegated powers, who has a direct or indirect financial interest is covered by the policy. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, they shall leave the Board of Directors or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining Board of Directors or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. An interested person may make a presentation at the Board of Directors or committee meeting, but after the presentation, they shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. To ensure the Organization operates in a manner consistent with charitable purposes and does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its tax-exempt status, periodic reviews and training about inurements, impermissive private benefits, and excess benefit transactions shall be conducted. If the Board of Directors or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the Board of Directors or committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a To establish the Compensation Policy, we researched compensation programs of related organizations, market-priced our jobs using online compensation tools and salary surveys, and worked with external human resource professionals. New Roots has established a flat-rate compensation structure, meaning we pay the exact same salary/hourly rate to every employee within the same leadership layer. For New Roots Institute, a flat-rate structure results in: A simplified compensation system that?s easier to administer and explain compared to complex structures with multiple levels and variables. A reputation for fair and equitable pay practices that can be a strong recruitment tool. An approach that aligns well with a culture that values teamwork, equity, and transparency.
