Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The Organization is exempt from Federal and State income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, therefore, the financial statements do not include a provision for income taxes. The Organization reviews income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns to determine if there are any income tax uncertainties. This includes positions that the entity is exempt from income taxes or not subject to income taxes on unrelated business income. The Organization recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the positions. The Organization has identified no significant income tax uncertainties. The Organization files information returns as a tax-exempt organization. Should that status be challenged in the future, all years since inception could be subject to review by the IRS.”

IRS990/Desc0Training and Consulting - From its founding in 1973, the Organization has been the go-to training school for organizers across the progressive movement. Its trainers have distilled decades of experience in social justice organizing into practical lessons for social justice organizers. Organizers in labor, women's rights, the environment, racial justice, immigrant rights, corporate accountability, and many more issues have found value in the Organization's skills-based approach to organizing. The Organization currently provides three courses: Organizing for Social Change, Advanced Strategy Retreat, and Supervising Organizers Workshop. Additionally, the Organization works closely with other organizations to meet said organizations' specific needs. This includes working with staff and leaders to develop issue campaign strategies, recruitment plans, staff, board and volunteer development, evaluation, development of effective field organizing structures for local, state, and national organizations and non-partisan voter registration training.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization is exempt from Federal and State income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, therefore, the financial statements do not include a provision for income taxes. The Organization reviews income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns to determine if there are any income tax uncertainties. This includes positions that the entity is exempt from income taxes or not subject to income taxes on unrelated business income. The Organization recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the positions. The Organization has identified no significant income tax uncertainties. The Organization files information returns as a tax-exempt organization. Should that status be challenged in the future, all years since inception could be subject to review by the IRS.
