Management is not aware of any transactions which would jeopardize their tax-exempt status.Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Organization and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Organization and has concluded that as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Management believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for tax years prior to 2022. U.S. state jurisdictions have statutes of limitations that generally range from three to five years. Currently, no audits for any tax periods are in progress. true true true true true true true false false false false false false false false true false true Schedule E, Line 3 - Racially Nondiscriminatory Policy Publicized The organization strives to make its nondiscriminatory policies known as evidenced by the racial composition of the children and families it serves.
