Authoring Action and The Dwelling partnership produced Creative Writing Workshops and Community Wide Engagements that amplifies the voices of Winston Salems unhoused and housing insecure. Through a series of Authoring Action Creative Writing workshops and with support of local collaborating musicians, authors from The Dwelling have written monologues, poems, stories, and songs that give a glimpse into the full personhood of people living on the margins of our community. Their stories challenge the stereotypes that exist about people experiencing homelessness, and name the realities of the broken systems that may unwittingly contribute to the oppressive qualities of homelessness, individually, culturally and systemically. We also provide writing workshops in program partnership with Senior Services through the Intergenerational Center for Arts and Wellness. Keys for Kids, founded by Ben Folds, provides free keyboard classes to children and youth. 160228 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false 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 true 16 0 true 6 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 13 13 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false X X Outfitters4 Inc 8889299499 717 Coliseum Drive NW Winston Salem NC 27106 Lynn Rhoades Executive Director 040.00 X 49800 0 0 Deborah Randolph Chair 002.00 X X 0 0 0 Lauranita Katende Treasurer 002.00 X X 0 0 0 Corlis Sellers Vice-Chair 002.00 X X 0 0 0 Camille French Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Bob Moyer Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Benton Williams Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Alexandra Hoskins Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Keri Epps Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Barnes Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Ralph Meadows Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Ron VonBurg Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Calvin Gardner Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 Gene Morris Board Member 001.00 X 0 0 0 49800 false false false 9725 87226 286895 383846 Program service revenue 711300 7700 7700 7700 12104 9725 4186 7918 Miscellaneous Revenue 900099 2 2 2 399466 7700 2 0 0 0 0 57300 27823 29477 0 99357 48245 51112 0 0 14083 6673 7410 0 0 9120 2590 6530 0 0 25612 1022 24590 341 341 19582 6327 11995 1260 3225 3225 0 13412 6904 6508 3819 2347 1472 0 0 0 0 507 507 3335 1278 2057 Artists Expense 42786 42786 Food/Catering Expense 9647 7320 1222 1105 Stipend expense 19328 3248 16080 15198 3665 6202 5331 336652 160228 165503 10921 52084 99393 4328 18717 17610 17610 56412 118110 7572 5098 8976 10334 16548 15432 X 35548 72298 4316 30380 39864 102678 56412 118110 62814 X X true X false true false X 240864 236030 220701 304294 383846 1385735 3040 16104 7425 15197 19804 61570 243904 252134 228126 319491 403650 1447305 1447305 0 0 0 816 2 818 243904 252134 228126 320307 403652 1448123 0.99940 0.99940 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false 17610 17610 Financial derivatives and other financial products Closely-held equity interests Federal income taxes X X 2 The Organization is exempt from federal and state income taxes on its related activities under Internal Revenue Service Code Section 501c3. Accordingly, no provision for federal and state income taxes has been made. The Organization files the required federal and state information returns. Whenever tax returns are filed, the filing organization must evaluate the merits of its tax positions and determine if they will be ultimately sustained. Those tax positions for the Organization include maintaining their tax-exempt status and the taxability of any unrelated business income. The Organization believes these positions are sustainable. Although the Organization has not incurred any interest and penalties associated with these positions, it is their policy to expense them in the statement of activities. With few exceptions, the Organization is generally no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before June 30, 2021.
