Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

The Organization's mission is to meet youth experiencing homelessness where they are, see them all as individuals with unique experiences and life stories and help them to build healthier lives. The Organization believes reducing harm is possible through the provision of accessible, respectful non-judgmental relationships, services and accurate up-to-date referrals and information. The Organization strives to empower youth experiencing homelessness to protect themselves, educate each other, reduce harm within the community, and when they are ready and have the opportunity to transition off the street.

  • Homeless Youth Alliance HYA was created by and for the community it works with. HYA believes that the best way to foster success is by adopting a proactive approach, while remaining mindful that those HYA serves have a right to determine the course of their own lives and their own care. Accordingly, HYA strives to hire people who either have come directly from the population it works with or who have shared similar life experiences. For a youth experiencing homelessness to know that the person sitting across from them has experienced and survived similar things to what they are going through, allows HYA to engage from a place of true knowing, lessening the deeply rooted stigma and shame that are so intertwined with homelessness. Homeless Youth Alliance gets to demonstrate that long-term change is possible. After losing the drop-in center, HYA pivoted towards taking our core services - outreach, case management, food access, harm reduction services, medical and mental health care, drug treatment, and groups - to youth experiencing homelessness where they are. It is through consistently providing these services that trusting relationships are formed and change happens.

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 19 October 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.

Grants received

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

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.
