We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Continuum of Care Program - Kansas Statewide Homeless Coalition (KSHC) has been designated as the Kansas Balance of State Continuum of Care's (CoC) Collaborative Applicant and therefore receive the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) CoC Planning Grant. The Planning grant provides funds to assist the Collaborative Applicants carry out some of its responsibilities such as: Developing a community-wide process involving the coordination of various providers to develop strategies for ending homelessness and identifying resources that are available to meet that goal; Determining the geographic area that the CoC will serve including evaluating the merits of merging with other CoCs; Developing a CoC system; Evaluating the outcomes of CoC and Emergency Solutions Grants projects within the CoC; Participating in the consolidated plan(s) within the CoC's boundaries; Preparing and submitting an application to HUD on behalf of the CoC, including conducting a Point-in-Time count and other data collection as required by HUD; Monitoring and improving the quality and performance of recipients and subrecipient projects and enforcing compliance with program requirements. KSHC is also the Kansas Balance of State Continuum of Care (CoC) Coordinated Entry Grant lead. Coordinated entry is a consistent, streamlined process for accessing the resources available in the homeless crisis response system. Through coordinated entry, a CoC, though KSHC, ensures that the highest need, most vulnerable households in the community are prioritized for services and that the housing and supportive services in the system are used as efficiently and effectively as possible. Ideally, coordinated entry can be the framework that transforms a CoC, from a network of projects making individual decisions about whom to serve, into a fully integrated crisis response system. By gathering information through a standardized assessment process, coordinated entry provides a CoC with data that it can use for system and project planning and resource allocation. In addition to being the CoC lead and CES lead for the KS Balance of state Continuum of Care, KSHC serves as the Homeless Information Management System (HMIS) Administrator. An HMIS is a local information technology system used to collect client-level data and data on the provision of housing and services to individuals and families at risk of and experiencing homelessness. As the HMIS System Administrator, KSHC is responsible for project set-up, grant management and administration, HMIS vendor relations, HMIS user relations, capacity building, strategic planning, and policy and procedure development. Lastly, KSHC also serves as the Johnson County Continuum of Care HMIS Lead and System Administrator. With us serving in these roles, other partners such as Aetna/CVC, Healthy Blue, Douglas County, United Health Care, Sunflower Foundation, MolinaCares, and the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services support our efforts by funding us to expand our outreach and services across the Balance of State Continuum of Care.

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.

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.
