This address is a suite or unit (STE 500). 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 · 2024

• ECONOMIC RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS - LUDWIG INSTITUTE FOR SHARED ECONOMIC PROSPERITY ("LISEP") CONDUCTED ECONOMIC RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS TO STUDY THE FINANCIAL WELL-BEING OF LOWER- AND MIDDLE-INCOME AMERICANS: THE PURPOSE OF THE RESEARCH WAS TO IDENTIFY GAPS IN CURRENT ECONOMIC STATISTICS AND TO PROPOSE AND PUBLISH ALTERNATIVE METRICS THAT PROVIDE A MORE NUANCED VIEW OF ECONOMIC TRENDS, WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THE DAILY REALITIES THAT THIS POPULATION FACES.

• PUBLISHING AND DISSEMINATING ECONOMIC RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS: THE MAIN GOAL IS TO ALLOW FOR THE ECONOMIC RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS TO BE WIDELY AVAILABLE TO THOUGHT LEADERS, ECONOMIC EXPERTS, POLICYMAKERS, PUBLIC OFFICIALS, AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC. THE FORMS OF MEDIA WHERE THE FINDINGS WOULD BE INCLUDE ARTICLES, NEWSLETTERS, AND LISEP'S WEBSITE AS WELL AS NEWS MEDIA, ACADEMIC JOURNALS, PODCASTS, ETC. LISEP HOPES THAT THE PUBLICATION OF NEW STATISTICS WILL LEAD TO TRACTION AMONGST RELEVANT AUDIENCES SO THEY WILL BETTER UNDERSTAND THE ECONOMIC PREDICAMENT OF LOW- AND MIDDLE-INCOME AMERICANS.

• PROVIDE GRANTS TO NONPROFIT INSTITUTIONS THAT HELP LOW- AND MIDDLE-INCOME PEOPLE SUCCEED IN LIFE. LISEP SOUGHT TO GRANT FUNDING TO A COUPLE OF NONPROFIT INSTITUTIONS THAT COULD MEANINGFULLY HELP PEOPLE IN NEED OF A LOW-INTEREST SMALL BUSINESS LOAN OR WHO NEEDED GAP FUNDING TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE WITH A SKILLS TRAINING COURSE AT A COMMUNITY COLLEGE. THE PURPOSE OF THE COURSE IS TO GAIN THE SKILLS FOR BETTER-PAYING EMPLOYMENT BUT SOME STUDENTS CANNOT GO THROUGH WITH THE TRAINING IF THEY DON'T HAVE FUNDING FOR FOOD AND BILLS, WHICH IS WHAT THE LISEP FUNDING IS INTENDED FOR.

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.
