Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Volunteer organization that works to improve the quality of life for women, children and families, and ensure individual rights and freedoms through advocacy and education.

  • Anti-Human Trafficking Prevention and Direct Service to SurvivorsThrough this program NCJW San Francisco Section (NCJW-SF) has been instrumental in bringing the issue of human trafficking to the forefront of the Bay Area community's thoughts and actions. Through advocacy, education and collaboration building NCJW-SF members have been working to mobilize the local community for an organized response to human trafficking. Since 2006, NCJW-SF has initiated and assisted the founding of two major collaborations and is currently serving as their administrator and coordinating agency. In addition, NCJW-SF has been working extensively on strengthening the survivor assistance and access to resources and services through operating the 24/7 Bay Area Human Trafficking Hotline for Survivors and Community.1.The Jewish Coalition to End Human Trafficking (JCEHT,) chaired and staffed by NCJW-SF, is an educational, advocacy organization that works on broadening the understanding in the Jewish Community regarding the crime of human trafficking and supporting the local providers of service to trafficking survivors. JCEHT's objectives are two-fold: partner with other interfaith and human rights groups, non-profits, government officials and law enforcement agencies to raise awareness of and act against human trafficking; and advocate for consistent and comprehensive anti-trafficking legislation that provides for strict criminal penalties for traffickers as well as for protection and rehabilitation for trafficking survivors.2.The San Francisco Collaborative Against Human Trafficking (SFCAHT), co-chaired, coordinated and staffed by NCJW-SF is a coalition of over 70 agencies from the law enforcement, government, and non-profit sectors. A central objective of SFCAHT is to raise awareness about human trafficking and increase anti-trafficking community efforts by providing outreach and education both to those who are directly impacted by the crime and to the Bay Area professionals and community at large. A special emphasis is put on SFCAHT work with teenagers and generally with youth, through the teen activism and leadership program and the SFCAHT Student Alliance. In addition, SFCAHT addresses the challenges in fighting transnational human trafficking through collaboration with the consular offices based in San Francisco and international partners, such as the relevant UN and EU offices and commissions. In their key leadership roles on the Collaborative, NCJW-SFs passionate activists and highly qualified staff have been working tirelessly to help eradicate human trafficking in San Francisco and Bay Area through collaboration, education, outreach, and advocacy. NCJW-SFs leaders involved in the convening for the creation of the Collaborative have been awarded and especially recognized by the San Francisco Mayor's office for their initiative and extraordinary achievement.3.The 24/7 Bay Area Human Trafficking Hotline and Referral Mechanism for Survivors and Community confidentially and safely connect survivors of human trafficking and their support networks with resources and protections. The Hotline also serves affected/concerned citizens who report suspected human trafficking activities or want to learn more about recognizing the signs of the crime. Through its survivor informed services and collaboration with the local and national stakeholders, the hotline empowers survivors to regain control, navigate their options, and determine their next steps. It provides interpretation in over 240 languages to accommodate needs of immigrant survivors.

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.

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.

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.
