IRS990/Desc0Promote Community Inclusion for People with Disabilities. In 2017, we undertook several initiatives focused on creating a more inclusive and welcoming community. This included the OpenUp PGH project, the Western PA Disability History and Action Consortium project, the Interdependence Network Program, and the Pittsburgh Center for Autistic Advocacy. The OpenUp PGH project offered inclusive yoga and improve theater to more than 100 students with and without disabilities in Pittsburgh. The Western PA Disability History and Action Consortium project is working to preserve and honor the historic struggle of Western Pennsylvanians with disabilities to attain human and civil rights. The Consortium also educated the public about disability history both online and in several live presentations. The Interdependence Network (IN) is a community of practice organized by individuals and human service organizations from around the United States, Canada and Australia. Members have committed to shifting their emphasis from the traditional medical model approach to rehabilitation to an interdependence model, which builds and fosters social capital and social inclusion within communities as the primary strategy for enabling people with disabilities to become full members of society. The group continued to meet and share emerging best practices. The Pittsburgh Center for Autistic Advocacy seeks to advance the equity of autistic people in all realms of life. PCAA believes in inclusive education, policy, and community for autistic people and all people with disabilities.

IRS990/MissionDesc0To promote social justice and social change by incubating and developing grassroots projects. We provide resources, training and technical assistance to nonprofit leaders and social change agents. Our work follows an Asset Based Community Development strategy (See, http://www.abcdinstitute.org/). Using this strategy, we seek to build on and support community assets and work to mobilize individuals, associations and institutions to come together to build on to their existing assets. This approach focuses on the potential of a community. Many communities address social and economic problems with only a small number of the community's total capacity. This is the challenge and opportunity of community engagement. Our strategy starts with the assumption that EVERYONE IN A COMMUNITY HAS SOMETHING TO OFFER.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Training and technical assistance focused on helping the community understand the state and federal laws impacting social justice themed projects. Side Project's training and technical assistance program delivered both in person and online based education and technical assistance. We provide information and guidance to nonprofits and grassroots projects on corporate, tax and compliance issues. This includes corporate governance issues, charitable registration compliance issues, tax-exempt issues, including executive compensation, private inurement, excess benefit, and the restrictions on lobbying and political activity. In 2017, this included over 3500 hours of pro bono and low bono one-on-one support to more hundreds of nonprofits and would-be nonprofit organizations (with budgets less than $5,000,000) in Pennsylvania and Florida. Additionally, we provided on-going low bono and pro bono legal, community organizing, and operational support to more than 30 small, grassroots nonprofits focused on social justice issues. In addition to technical assistance, we also published the Pro Bono Publico blog that helps community organizers and nonprofit executive directors to understand the state and federal legal issues impacting their organizations. In Florida, we hosted two nonprofit legal clinic workshops in partnership with Nonprofit First on legal and compliance issues for small nonprofits, 15 organizations attended. In Pittsburgh, we partnered with the Bayer Center for Nonprofit Management and hosted a workshop for individuals thinking about starting a nonprofit. The course, So You Wanna Be a 501(c)(3), focused on the incorporation process and alternatives that may be more appropriate, as well as nonprofit governance issues, reporting requirements and other legal and management issues that impact nonprofit organizations, 10 individuals attended. We also partnered with the Duquesne University School of Law Continuing Education program to host a continuing legal education course titled "101 for 501s". This 3 hour course covered the following topics: Overview of board responsibilities, duty of care and duty of loyalty, documents to review before joining a nonprofit, Common compliance issues in executive compensation, solicitation registration, annual reporting requirements, and IRS filing requirements, Mergers and informal partnership arrangements, Intellectual property hot topics, Nationally, we are in the process of developing a webinar based education program that is free to the public. In 2017, we hosted 2 webinar on "Fiscal Sponsorship" in partnership with the Bayer Center for Nonprofit Management, Nonprofits First, the Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofit Management and Nonprofit Issues. More than 120 people attended.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Promoting Civic Engagement. We have a dedicated corp of young and old professionals with a passion to give back to the community. We coordinate the volunteer's efforts and match them with a charitable side project at a small nonprofit. Many of our volunteers are lawyers who help with legal issues, but we also have folks from other fields as well, including accounting, computer programming, website design, graphic design, editing, community organizing, and social administration. In 2017, we had 30 volunteers, who volunteered more than 1,000 hours of help. Additionally, we conducted the PS 305 project. P.S. 305 follows the PICO model of community organizing, with some elements of the Asset Based Community Development Institute and 270 Strategies theories of organizing incorporated, as well. We follow a four-part organizing cycle: listen, research, act, reflect. Our organizing work begins by listening. We conduct one-on-one meetings and house meetings with hundreds of people affected by educational inequity in our target neighborhoods. In 2017, for example, we held 411 one-on-ones with 89 parents and 64 teachers from 57 schools and over 50 community-based organizations. Our initial listening campaigns help us identify specific problems and leaders in the community who are most affected by these problems. These are the people with the most power to resolve them. In 2017, we identified disparities in academic achievement and access to school choice as the two biggest issues facing our stakeholders. Following the listening phase is a research phase, where leaders work to find solutions to the problems identified. This entails conducting research meetings with decision-makers to learn more about the problem. Groups of parents and teachers come together for meetings with school board members, the superintendent, and district staff. In early 2018, groups of parents and teachers are reaching out to these decision-makers to learn more about the two selected issues they are researching, working to understand the history, root causes, and political dynamics around these issues while simultaneously identifying allies and building relationships. The third phase in our organizing cycle is action; leaders plan and execute actions to create measureable, tangible change in their community.
