Mission

NCOSE EMBRACES A MISSION TO DEFEND HUMAN DIGNITY AND TO ADVOCATE FOR A WORLD FREE FROM SEXUAL EXPLOITATION, OBJECTIFICATION, AND VIOLENCE. TO THIS END, NCOSE OPERATES ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF PUBLIC POLICY ACTIVISM TO COMBAT CORPORATE AND GOVERNMENT POLICIES THAT FOSTER EXPLOITATION, CIVIL LITIGATION, RESEARCH, AND THROUGH ITS PARENT CENTER TO BRING ABOUT A WORLD FREE FROM SEXUAL ABUSE AND EXPLOITATION.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE NATIONAL CENTER ON SEXUAL EXPLOITATION (NCOSE) IS THE LEADING ORGANIZATION EXPOSING THE LINKS BETWEEN ALL FORMS OF SEXUAL ABUSE AND EXPLOITATION.

  • LITIGATIONTHE NCOSE LAW CENTER IS AN ADVOCATE FOR SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL ABUSE AND EXPLOITATION IN LITIGATION AGAINST MEGA CORPORATIONS AND SYSTEMS THAT HAVE FACILITATED THEIR ABUSE AND INTERVENES IN KEY, PRECEDENT-SETTING CASES. WHILE STILL IN ITS INFANCY, THE NCOSE LAW CENTER HAS ALREADY BROUGHT TOGETHER SOME OF AMERICA'S LEADING PLAINTIFFS LAW FIRMS TO BEGIN BRINGING DOZENS, AND SOON HUNDREDS, OF CASES TO THE COURTS. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE STRATEGY THAT WAS USED TO BRING OTHER HARMFUL INDUSTRIES SUCH AS BIG TOBACCO TO THEIR KNEES.

  • PUBLIC POLICY NCOSE'S PUBLIC POLICY TEAM AIMS TO DEFEND DIGNITY AND COMBAT SEXPLOITATION THROUGH POLITICAL ADVOCACY AT THE NATIONAL AND STATE LEVELS WITH BI-PARTISAN SUPPORT OF ALL LEGISLATIVE SOLUTIONS.

NCOSE IS ESTABLISHING A COMPLETE LIBRARY OF THE BEST MODEL LEGISLATION IN AMERICA TO STOP SEXUAL EXPLOITATION. WE ARE GROWING OUR EFFORT AND ARE PROACTIVELY ENGAGED IN THE CONGRESS AND VARIOUS STATE LEGISLATURES TO PROMOTE OUR LEGISLATION AND TURN BACK INITIATIVES OF OUR OPPONENTS. THIS INCLUDES, CLEANING UP THE INTERNET BY HOLDING ON-LINE PROVIDERS AND PLATFORMS ACCOUNTABLE HARM THE FACILITATE AND CREATING POLICIES THAT DECRIMINALIZE VICTIMS OF SEXUAL EXPLOITATION WHILE INCREASING ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THOSE WHO DO THE HARM PIMPS/TRAFFICKERS AND SEX BUYERS. NCOSE ASSISTS LEGISLATORS AND INTEREST GROUPS, ON A NATIONAL AND LOCAL LEVEL, WORKING TO IMPROVE THEIR LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS. THIS INCLUDES PROVIDING MODEL SEXUALLY-ORIENTED BUSINESS LAWS, INTERNET FILTERING LAWS, MODEL RICO LAWS, OPTIMAL PROSTITUTION LEGISLATION, NUDE DANCING REGULATIONS, MASSAGE PARLOR ORDINANCES, OBSCENITY LAWS, CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE MATERIAL LAWS, AND LAWS HARMFUL TO MINORS.

The first 25 listed. 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.

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.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

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 11 November 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.
