• FAMILY PRESERVATION ACT:WE ADVOCATED FOR CIVIL RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES DURING THE SHORT SESSION OF THE KENTUCKY GENERAL ASSEMBLY. WE WORKED WITH DIRECTLY IMPACTED ADVOCATES ACROSS OUR PRIORITY ISSUE AREAS TO SHARE THEIR STORIES AND MEET WITH LEGISLATORS TO DISCUSS THE IMPACTS OF VARIOUS PIECES OF LEGISLATION UNDER CONSIDERATION. WE LAUNCHED NEW LEGISLATION, THE FAMILY PRESERVATION ACT, THAT ADDRESSES THE ROOT CAUSES OF CRIME, WHILE KEEPING FAMILIES TOGETHER. THE LEGISLATION PASSED THE HOUSE UNANIMOUSLY BEFORE STALLING IN THE SENATE BEFORE THE END OF SESSION. WE LOOK FORWARD TO BRINGING THE LEGISLATION'S MOMENTUM BACK TO THE 2026 GENERAL ASSEMBLY WITH HOPES FOR FINAL PASSAGE IN THE NEW YEAR.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Listed in Part VII

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.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
