Mission and programs · 2024

• Free Legal Services Program: Provide free legal services to low-income clients who qualified at 200% of poverty or less. Legal services are offered to clients across the state of Wyoming. The legal issues must involve a child or vulnerable adult's health, safety, education or general welfare. Center cases include special education law, school discipline, guardianships, custody disputes, juvenile court proceedings and involuntary commitments. This program is funded by grants from Equal Justice of Wyoming, a program supervised by the Wyoming Supreme Court and the Equal Justice Wyoming Foundation, which manages and provides grants from the State's IOLTA program to provide legal assistance to low-income citizens of the State.

  Expenses $131,451 · Grants $131,451

• Family Tree Program: Provides free mediation, parent education, and supervised visitation and exchange services for parents involved in custody disputes. The Center provides these services to parents to help address and resolve disputes that often impacts their children's health, safety and wellbeing and to help families avoid formal legal processes whenever possible. Services are funded through a grant from the Wyoming Department of Family Services Child Support Division, which in turn is funded by a federal Access and Visitation grant. Center reserve funds were used to cover the required ten percent match until October of 2019, when the Community Foundation provided a grant to cover match requirements.

  Expenses $110,635 · Grants $110,635

• Sliding Fee Legal Services Program for Modest Means Clients: The Center provides reduced fee legal services to modest means clients who do not qualify for free legal services when their legal service need involves issues related to a child or vulnerable adult's health, safety, education or wellbeing. Cases include special education law, school discipline, guardianships, custody disputes, juvenile court proceedings and involuntary commitments. This program is funded primarily by the fees collected from clients with supplemental help from donations and general grants and reserve funds generated by fee recoupments.

  Expenses $79,040 · Revenue $74,866

• Advocacy work: Juvenile Justice Reform Project, the Center formed the Wyoming Youth Justice Coalition to build grass root support for reforming Wyoming's Juvenile Justice System. The primary focus was the elimination of juvenile fees and fines during 2022. Work includes building partnerships with knowledgeable professionals and developing educational materials to inform stakeholders and the public of specific problem areas that will be the priority for reforming during each year.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.
