Mission and programs · 2023
Mission
We work to help educate all communities and advocate for inclusion of access to information. This includes working to push back against efforts or initiatives that would limit or restrict a persons ability to explore, discover, and learn from any source of information. We intend to support and bring awareness to organizations and public policy that promote these ideals, promote learning, and do not limit access to information or the education of our society.

In 2023, Freedom to Learn Advocates' (FTLA) refined its operations and infrastructure, developed advocacy and growth strategies as well as a robust public communications strategy that aligned with the organization's mission. FTLA ran digital advertising programs in the Spring and Fall in order to advocate and reach community members. FTLA also hosted and attended coalition meetings and gatherings with partner organizations with similar missions and goals.

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.
