This work included publishing working papers, presenting at conferences, completing interviews, and developing a website to clearly share documentation and findings with the public. The Organization also hosted research briefings to engage policymakers, practitioners, and community leaders, and reached out directly to study participants to answer their questions about the results. The research team invited all participants to take part in quarterly surveys and conducted in-depth qualitative interviews with a subset of participants to better understand their experiences after the cash assistance program ended. The Organization also worked on additional analysis, secured several grants to support key components of this project, expanded public access to research documentation and data, collaborated with partner organizations, advised multiple groups implementing cash assistance programs on program design, evaluation, and implementation, and began development of new projects building on this research. 3285961 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false false false 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 true 18 0 true 10 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 3 2 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true false false true true false CA DE X Chris Clark 8339272677 1960 Bryant St San Francisco CA 94110 Elizabeth Rhodes Director 1.00 0.00 X 171172 0 20460 Aristia Kinis Glinka Strategy Director 40.00 0.00 148787 0 33649 Patrick Krause Data Director 40.00 0.00 135986 0 30312 Tess Cotter Research Engineer 40.00 0.00 128606 0 15661 Karina Dotson Research Manager 40.00 0.00 115067 0 18870 Yesenia Vargas Researcher 40.00 0.00 95227 0 23335 Chris Clark COO/Director 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sam Altman Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 794845 142287 6 false true false 0 18164914 18164914 Program Revenue 900099 42000 42000 42000 91240 91240 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 18298154 42000 91240 X 0 0 0 0 191632 160842 30790 0 909504 763369 146135 0 177675 145524 32151 81456 68393 13063 0 44811 44811 46289 46289 0 0 0 1479068 1456747 22321 29729 28996 381 352 4295 1377 2918 153733 119580 34153 0 1565 1565 113330 108431 4899 0 0 77210 77210 0 11836 11836 49227 49227 Program Research 237461 237461 Survey Payments 193676 193676 Licenses and Fees 199 199 0 3802696 3285961 516383 352 336624 784983 2388326 1654412 714646 485445 0 0 0 0 0 14819 37588 145183 133849 23170 11334 0 0 0 0 0 3477585 2973762 168140 32235 14863376 15031516 32235 X -11553931 2941527 -11553931 2941527 3477585 2973762 14495458 X false true X true false X 4136044 10135056 292496 762115 18164914 33490625 0 0 4136044 10135056 292496 762115 18164914 33490625 10258295 23232330 3204 6959 163071 91239 264473 0 0 33755098 245130 0.68830 0.37220 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 75768 73900 1868 69415 59949 9466 11334 X 18298154 18298154 18298154 3802696 3802696 3802696 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and related California code sections and accordingly, is not subject to federal or state income taxes. In accordance with US GAAP, the Organization accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing tax positions in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2024, the Organization has made no changes in the purpose, character, or method of operations and, therefore, has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
