Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Ali Forney Centers mission is to protect LGBTQ youth from the harm of homelessness and to support them in becoming safe and independent as they move from adolescence to adulthood.

  • Housing Program: The Ali Forney Centers Residential Treatment Model (RTM) Program continued to provide a vital lifeline for LGBTQ+ youth experiencing homelessness in 2023. This program offers a structured, supportive environment for young people with complex mental health and substance use needs. With 24/7 care from a dedicated team of professionals, residents receive individualized treatment plans, including crisis counseling, individual therapy, and group programming. This year, the program expanded its capacity by onboarding 2 additional RTM Specialists, allowing more youth to access these essential services.

    Expenses $8,659,517

  • Drop-In Center: In 2023, the Ali Forney Center made a transformative move from Harlem to Midtown, New York, significantly enhancing our ability to serve LGBTQ+ youth experiencing homelessness. The new, centrally located facility offers increased space and accessibility, enabling us to expand our drop-in based services. This relocation has also strengthened partnerships with local health providers and community organizations, fostering greater collaboration and support.

    Expenses $7,603,358

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
