Participants report feeling less isolated, more emotionally balanced, and better equipped to manage stress, grief, and intergenerational trauma. By centering lived experiences and cultural strengths, this program continues to fill a critical gap in equitable, accessible mental health support for the Latino community.

Led by bilingual facilitators, the program created a welcoming environment where parents could share experiences, ask questions, and build community. Many participants expressed increased confidence in advocating for their children in school settings and a deeper understanding of how to foster strong, supportive family relationships. By centering Latino cultural values and addressing systemic barriers, the Escuela de Madres y Padres is not only strengthening families but also advancing educational equity and intergenerational resilience across the community.

These spaces foster personal growth, confidence, and a strong sense of identity by addressing topics such as mental health, gender equity, academic success, and community leadership. Participants were paired with mentors who provided guidance, encouragement, and tools to navigate lifes challenges while embracing their cultural strengths. The program also offered intergenerational opportunities for learning and connection, helping build a resilient, empowered network of Latinas committed to justice, healing, and community transformation.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
