This past year, HYC experienced an increase in the number of youth identified as homeless and referred for services. Since August, 716 youth experiencing homelessness have participated in the program this year; that is 116 more than the goal of serving 600 youth.In May, 463 youth were actively participating in the program. Of those youth, 162 were high school seniors. Of the 162 seniors, 126 graduated, one youth obtained their GED, 33 youth are attending summer school or will enroll in the fall and two youth are undecided. It is widespread among this vulnerable population to have many youth enroll for a second senior year. Of the 126 graduating seniors, 98% enrolled in college, entered the workforce, or enlisted in the military. This success was accomplished because of HYC's goal to lower caseloads so that youth coaches were able to spend more time with youth addressing their needs related to education, housing instability, and important for their sustainability helping the youth develop a plan for post-graduation that creates lasting solutions for the future.This past year, Homeless Youth Connection (HYC) was given an incredible opportunity to continue to expand its resources and services to youth experiencing homelessness in our community. Through a partnership with Catholic Charities, HYC relocated its administrative office from the West Valley to Central Phoenix. The newly remodeled facility is a 7,000 sq ft congregate living that provides up to 20 beds in single-floor dormitory-style accommodations. There are ten rooms with two beds and a shared bathroom per room. There is a shared kitchen, community area, and laundry accommodations. This program is centrally located in Phoenix, providing close access to public transportation, employment, and schools. This site is supervised by trained and qualified staff full-time and offers a rich array of programming and life skill development opportunities. In November, HYC received a $1M grant from the Arizona Department of Housing to purchase a home in Flagstaff for transitional housing for unaccompanied youth experiencing homelessness. The home is a single-family unit that will provide safe and stable housing for up to seven youth. The home is located close to three high schools in the Flagstaff Unified School District. Similar to the home in Goodyear, there will be a resident manager living on-site for safety and supervision and a part-time resident assistant that will assist on the weekends. The home also has an office for the Flagstaff youth coach and community engagement manager, as well as a separate area for donations. 2002804 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 15 0 1 25 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 11 11 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X X Dawn Bogart 6233743747 9100 N 2nd Street 301 Phoenix AZ 85020 Cyndi Tercero Board President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Cindy Toraya Board Vice President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Deborah Charlesworth Board Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Corinne Cookson Board Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Amanda Silva Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Bobby Barnes Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Allyson Knappenberger Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mike Kriley Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Emily Striffler Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Matt Parker Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Frank Garcia Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dawn Bogart Co-CEO 60.00 X 113117 0 3258 Dana Bailey Co-CEO 60.00 X 113117 0 3344 226234 0 6602 2 0 0 0 0 1265016 1346438 78836 2611454 5239 5239 Other income 900099 1712 1712 1712 2618405 0 0 6951 357594 357594 226234 199086 11312 15836 1089264 958552 54463 76249 168548 148322 8427 11799 95734 84246 4787 6701 30849 30849 8151 978 7173 42000 20332 2708 18960 28813 8068 2305 18440 121534 106951 6076 8507 5431 5431 21398 20527 871 30268 26636 1513 2119 Youth empowerment 60707 60707 16600 6352 3268 6980 2303125 2002804 127557 172764 984368 227305 257183 6294 198149 365301 85690 38800 4357 25326 969468 23164 22786 946304 567594 4556 368559 1557089 2545483 50689 355244 0 368559 50689 723803 X 1456400 1536680 50000 285000 1506400 1821680 1557089 2545483 315280 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 1545965 1827083 1825098 2349067 2611454 10158667 1545965 1827083 1825098 2349067 2611454 10158667 1433513 8725154 16 15 8 2 5239 5280 1712 1712 10165659 0.85830 0.81870 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 7541 0 0 7541 0 Part II-B, Line 1: HYC's employees engaged to influence legislation by meeting with legislators. 176067 176067 758434 16104 742330 27358 4650 22708 4859 2410 2449 2750 2750 946304 Operating lease right of use asset 368559 368559 Operating lease liability 368559 368559 X 2618405 0 2618405 0 2618405 2303125 0 2303125 0 2303125 Part X, Line 2: Management has evaluated the tax positions taken on its exempt organization filings, and the likelihood that upon examination those positions would be sustained.
