Mission and programs · 2025
Mission
The Women's Storybook Project connects and strengthens the bond between children and their incarcerated mothers through the power of literature. By fostering meaningful connections, the program aims to reduce the rate of re-incarceration amount mothers, lower the likelihood of children following a path to incarceration, support literacy and promote positive parenting and improve communities through the healing power of story and connection. Through each book sent and each story shared, we help rewrite futures - one family at a time.
Activities or mission (Part I)
To connect children with their incarcerated mothers through the joy of literature.
-
In a heartfelt effort to maintain bonds between incarcerated mothers and their children, the Women's Storybook Project reached across 11 women's prisons in Texas, enabling 625 mothers to record stories and/or write caring notes, 782 children to receive these messages of love, and 6,758 books and/or recordings to be mailed to children across 23 states. This initiative continues to bridge distance with the power of storytelling, nuturing connection and healing one book at a time.

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.
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.

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.
What this page reflects
The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 1 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2025, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
