Our peoples journey and our first program offering, The Challenge, begins inside facilities. The Challenge is a 32-week (8-month) program in which they will be asked to alter their lives and mindsets in difficult and vulnerable ways that enhance each individual's Job Readiness, Character Development, Reentry Planning, and the Entrepreneurial Mindset. Soft skills covered include, but are not limited to, emotional self-awareness, self-assessment, self-alignment, self-confidence, self-blame, self-restraint, stress tolerance, and resilience. Job readiness and reentry planning topics include goal-setting, job search in the 21st century, resume building, intro to interviewing, time management, budgeting and cost of living, community resources, and mock interviews. The entrepreneurial mindset dives into business ideation, business models, finance, customer development, and teamwork. The Challenge builds upon itself from week to week designed to facilitate a stable trajectory of growth. Our participants have the opportunity to remain within our organization during their time of incarceration by participating in The Transformation, our in-facility alumni association. We believe in improving the quality of life within facilities, as well as continuing to support our graduates in personal transformation while they await release. This is a time when alumni are able to show off what they learned in The Challenge. 262193 For our participants rejoining society, we support them in their unique transition through The Return. During The Return, participants will be assisted as they work to gain stability and successfully acclimate to the outside. Our primary role for those in The Return is obtaining and maintaining stable employment while helping them to fill skill gaps as they embark on their chosen career path. To help our program participants successfully stabilize we connect them with trusted community partners specializing in their area of need. The key factors of stability include food, clothing, housing, transportation, employment, safety, mental health/substance abuse, program completion, and personal identification. Once participants have found stability they begin the final stage of their journey, The Exemplar. In this stage, we focus on career development, personal growth, and entrepreneurial guidance. People in The Exemplar program have access to our dedicated network of mentors and career workshops. 589563 true true 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 false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 12 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 6 6 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true false false true true false X X Stacey Putka 7203085889 1766 W 46th Ave PO Box 11146 Denver CO 80221 Stacey Putka Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 101223 0 0 Harris Rollinger Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jacki Cooper-Melmed Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elaine Boltz Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jenn Mendelson Chairman 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Thomas Secretary 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 101223 1 false false false 0 822652 822652 0 32 32 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 822684 32 0 0 0 0 101223 73893 21257 6073 0 432031 315907 92354 23770 0 33065 18180 13796 1089 41258 29857 9121 2280 0 0 8611 8611 0 0 0 27824 19180 6585 2059 7724 4556 2928 240 2176 37 2139 2388 2388 0 27893 22315 5578 1529 32 1497 0 710 710 0 0 919 919 5750 5750 In-Prison Program 78093 77602 491 Dues and Subscriptions 25193 15579 9614 Post-Release Program 12425 12425 Fundraising Other 8646 8646 4424 4424 821882 589563 188162 44157 127369 119891 430 25342 0 114077 107941 0 0 0 0 0 8957 6721 3155 2236 0 0 0 0 0 245031 255410 9361 18938 9361 18938 X 222132 222934 13538 13538 235670 236472 245031 255410 802 X false false false X 321391 729765 468556 596849 822652 2939213 0 0 321391 729765 468556 596849 822652 2939213 0 2939213 0 0 0 2939213 1.00000 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 8957 6721 2236 2236 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b A draft copy of the return is distrbuted to the governing body before authorization to efile is signed Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 18 All documents are made available upon request.
