Other organizations at this address

1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

This address is a suite or unit (STE 1000). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

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.

Mission and programs · 2025

• Provider Engagement programs support and develop child care and early education professionals through one-on-one consulting, training, and mentoring; materials and equipment; scholarships for professional development conferences; and wage enhancement programs that reward teachers for earning higher educational credentials.

  Expenses $2,908,909 · Grants $445,948

• Community Engagement programs participate in partnerships to promote healthy child development and strengthen laws and regulations impacting young children. Early childhood education is promoted as a high-priority public policy issue in our region, which needs adequate support to deliver quality programs for parents, children, and teachers.

  Expenses $786,386 · Grants $70,441

• Family Engagement programs provide families with information, resources, and support to launch their children toward academic and life success by providing parent education classes, one-on-one parent coaching, and referrals for early education programs, after-school programs, as well as programs that have received training on meeting the needs of children with different abilities.

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 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. 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. 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.
