• Educational support systems: Many children in New York City schools find it difficult to focus on their studies. Unfortunately, this results in poor attendance, impaired scholastic achievement, lack of motivation and low self-esteem. Children of immigrant families face compounded challenges because of various socio-economic issues. Their parents often have poor job skills, lack living wage employment, have limited English proficiency, and have difficulty adjusting to the American culture. Because of these struggles, immigrant parents are often unable to provide their children with the emotional, physical, and educational support they need. In the last three decades, JCCGCI has sought to address these issues through its educational support systems framework, founded in 1991. Currently, the framework includes five programs. 1) Our Advantage After School Program (serving 95 middle and high school students in a site in Queens). 2) Our Extended School Day/School Violence Prevention Programs (serving 743 students with after-school programming at 2 public schools in Coney Island). 3) Our Comprehensive Afterschool System of NYC (Compass-NYC) program (serving 193 youth in grades 6-8 at two sites in Crown Heights, Brooklyn). 4) Our Horizons Academy Workforce Development Program (providing college and career preparation services to 125 high school students and alumni at Abraham Lincoln high school). 5) Our Expanded Schools After-School Program (providing 29 students at PS 288 in Brooklyn with homework and tutoring assistance).

  Expenses $1,353,083

• Mental Health Services: JCCGCI provides mental health services through various programing including: Building Resilience through Youth program which supports Coney Island youth by identifying mental health risk, expanding access to care, reducing stigma related to mental health, and encouraging the connection with community care that youth need to ensure their health, self-reliance, and well-being; JCCGCI's Trauma Recovery Center provided mental health services geared toward residents of Brooklyn who have experienced violent crime and trauma; and a JCCGCI Social Worker who addressed trauma and mental health needs in the Coney Island community.

Officers and directors · 2023

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 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.
