| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 0 | FMC SHINES LIGHT ON ABUSES OF POWER AND BETRAYALS OF PUBLIC TRUST, WHILE HEIGHTENING PUBLIC DIALOGUE ABOUT CRITICAL TOPICS THAT SYSTEMS-INVOLVED CHILDREN, YOUTH AND FAMILIES FACE. WE MEASURE IMPACT IN THREE WAYS: 1) POLICY CHANGE; 2) MEDIA PICKUP; AND 3) READERSHIP.POLICY CHANGE: FMC'S COVERAGE HAS REPEATEDLY DRIVEN POLICY CHANGE AT THE LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL LEVEL. SINCE LAUNCHING IN 2010, FMC HAS BEEN CRITICAL TO CHANGING FEDERAL LAW AFFECTING THE EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS OF FOSTER YOUTH, EXTENDING THE FOSTER CARE TO AGE 21 IN CALIFORNIA AND A WIDE RANGE OF REFORMS IN OUR HOME BASE OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY. FOR EXAMPLE, OUR COVERAGE OF THE STATES' FAILURE TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FEDERAL EVERY STUDENT SUCCEEDS ACT FOSTER CARE MANDATES LED TO MILLIONS OF NEW DOLLARS SPENT TO PROVIDE RIDES TO SCHOOL FOR FOSTER YOUTH IN CALIFORNIA, RHODE ISLAND AND COLORADO. IN ADDITION, WE MADE SURE THAT MEDIA OUTLETS AND PUBLIC OFFICIALS ACROSS THE COUNTRY UNDERSTOOD THE NEEDS OF THE RELATIVES WHO STEP UP TO CARE FOR FOSTER CHILDREN. WE WERE SO EFFECTIVE THAT GEORGIA FOUND NEARLY $3 MILLION TO INCREASE PAY TO RELATIVE CAREGIVERS, AND TWO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS PENNED AN OP-ED IN THE HILL THAT RELIED HEAVILY ON OUR WORK CALLING FOR BETTER SUPPORT OF THESE FAMILIES.MEDIA PICKUP: KEY TO FMC'S THEORY OF CHANGE IS THE ABILITY TO DRIVE FOLLOW-UP COVERAGE IN MAINSTREAM AND NICHE NEWS OUTLETS, ENSURING OUR STORIES AND THE CRITICAL ISSUES THEY COVER REACH THE BROADEST POSSIBLE AUDIENCE. IN FY 19-20, WE HAD 1,103 TOTAL INSTANCES OF MEDIA PICKUP (COMPARED TO 938 THE PREVIOUS YEAR), INCLUDING OUTLETS SUCH AS THE WASHINGTON POST, TIME, THE LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS, THE ATLANTIC, THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE APPEAL, TEEN VOGUE, VICE, PUBLIC RADIO AND TELEVISION STATIONS, AND MANY MORE. READERSHIP: FMC'S AUDIENCE RANGES FROM CHILD WELFARE AND JUVENILE JUSTICE WORKERS TO POLICYMAKERS, MEMBERS OF THE MEDIA AND YOUTH. OVER THE LAST FISCAL YEAR, OUR READERSHIP GREW BY MORE THAN 50 PERCENT, BUILDING ON OUR NEW SUSTAINABLE REPORTING HUBS IN NEW YORK AND NOW THE MIDWEST. |
